Absolutely

 

Good.

Cause I did. Lol
Was on a part of town I’m normally not in so figured may as well stop by and try some new brews.

Currently I’m making venison/beef chili with an ancho red ale. I’m hoping it will be tasty.
Part of me wishes I kept bread in the house to do jalapeno grilled cheese

 

PED baby! command better salary

 

Beer really does belong in chili.

@uhplifted
At this new place they had a bourbon barrel aged porter. It was only 7.8% but it actually smelled like bourbon. It carried a good heat.
Its not a beer I would care to drink a whole glass but it was not revolting and only had a very minor soy sauce flavor.
I’m wondering if its because its a porter or due to it likely not being aged long and low ABV.

 

This thread is half beer half fitness haha!

Fiance just sent me this lol




2 days away!

 

If she slapped my ass... idk if my girl would swing at her or just say okay and keep walking.

You forgot the foodies!



Had 6 of these sirloin and chicken tacos for my first meal. 57p 65c 18f.


Would have been better with some cervezas, but you know, cutting.

 

How funny I’m at work listening to El Paso by Marty Robins thinking about how incredible some tacos would be right now lol

Corona Premier is pretty bomb and low calorie

 

I have a terrible relationship with beer. I love it, but I have ZERO desire to drink one beer and make it fit into my macros. The first beer makes me want the second one even more. Then the second one... Then I want to drink all the beers. Obviously this is terrible for dieting, and health in general, so I really limit myself on how often I drink. Haven't had one in three weeks.

 

Craft beer was the worst thing to ever happen to my waist line.

 

I’ve been pretty good about really just sticking to 1-2, especially if its craft. But problem is 1-2 a day adds up in cals over the week.

My issue is social drinking. Especially if there is any fire around.

I got some Miller 64 in the fridge to help me keep the cals down on the weeknights.

I also started working out 7 days a week too lol. Gives me an extra 400-500 cals a week for beer.

 

Try working at a brewery and get free or half price beer...

 

Friday noods.

Another week in the books, another pound shed. 174 this morning. I’ve been at 175/210/70 with a variance of +/- 5g for protein and carbs and +/- 2g for fat.

Going to make a VERY slight change this week and take 5g carbs away and put a hard cap of 70g on the fats to keep things progressing.


Little less fluffy than last week!
