Not sure if you will see it below, so I thought I'd highlight the fact that I hit 2.35 miles in my 20 minutes on the treadmill! Woot! One my my own personal goals is to hit 2.5 miles in my 20 minutes. I'd like to get there by February 15th. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get there. I'm so close! But it is really tough, and I still have 0.15 miles to add.
And on lunch, which is what the title of my post is. Man, I love eating there. I know I've told you all about my goals and strategies and poor choices in the past with regards to this place, but I wanted to share the new meal I have there. The 496 Calorie meal!
It's so tasty. And I'll have it each time I go there. Yummy! But then, I get back to the office to find this email:
How's that for a sabotage? But I won't give in. I looked at redrobin.com, and the lowest Calorie appetizer is the Guacamole, Salsa & Chips at 812 Calories. Not too bad (if you share it with 3 other people!), but the worst is the Nacho Ordinary Chili Nachos with Chicken at 2,084 Calories. Yikes! No thank you, Red Robin, I think I'll just delete the email now if you don't mind.

So very close Beej! You will hit that goal, I have no doubts about it.
The calories in those appetizers are unreal, aren't they?

Yeah, Steve, they're crazy! Luckily, Anna and I are usually too cheap to get an appetizer, but there were some times we'd get the 1,900 Calories Onion ring tower...Yikes!!

Congrats on being so close to your 20 minute goal!
That sandwich at Red Robin looks great. We don't have Red Robins here! Good on you for not letting that stupid email tempt you. 2000 calories for one appetizer is CRAZY, even if it is split between people! WoW! That helps to put things into perspective, huh?

You will be hitting that goal in no time. Isn't it great when you find a better choice at a place that has some not so great choices? Well done!

It's all about making choices in the real world. The sandwhich is a great choice.
You're workout routine is amazing. Makes me want to bump up my times.
