A Muffin Too Far

Got up this morning and had a pleasant surprise as I prepared to go to the gym -- a chocolate chip banana muffin. It was excellent and quite yummy, and at 165 calories, hard to beat.

I got to the gym and had a nice workout -- 210 calories used up today. Not too bad for a 20 minute workout.

WHOOPS! I went over. We can attribute it to either a muffin 165 calories or the young coconut oil in the smoothie (117). I figure the oil. See I thought it would be nice to go ahead and get those good fats in, and the coconut oil is supposed to stimulate a higher metabolism as well.

Dangit.

I'm not perfect, and I'm not all that ashamed as I've been feeling poorly anyway -- probably due to the kidney problems -- stones, I'm pretty sure.

At least I didn't indulge in the middle of the night as I really wanted to.... :)
