Have I missed something? Did no one mention beer? Sweet, sweet, hoppy beer! What is possibly better? I work at night so I don't have one or so day like most people. No I get my fill on Friday and Saturday night. And boy do I get my fill!
And now that Eric mentioned it, where are my double stuffed oreos dammit!

Tucker - we get Shiner Holiday Cheer down here! Dunkelweizen, with peaches. One a night makes the day that much better. Wish you could get it!
Steve, we're related. Me too. At Lake Placid this year, my mom bought some version of Chips Ahoy cookies and they were like crack. I fueled the entire IM on those alone I think. I found some in the cupboard over Thanksgiving. *Homer Simpson gurgle*
Beer...I've made a personal commitment to not drink any beer Monday - Wednesday nights so that I sleep better the nights before our midweek workouts. I'd say I'm at about 50%, but now that I've made the commitment public maybe I'll do better.
jon, suzanne with you guys on the chocolate chip cookies. started eating them on the run course in lake placid after mile 4 , every 2 miles I need to 2-3 cookies you do the math. On other days it is a good glass of wine and something/anything fried (calamari )
Potato Chips. Ohhhh, potato chips. I swear they call out my name when I'm in a grocery store, and I'm almost always good enough to not go down the aisle (because if I buy a bag it's all over.) But sometimes I decide it's not good to be excessively rigid in life, and I buy a bag. And they're always just as good as I remember. You'll notice this isn't a sweets or holiday issue - which is kind of good because the holidays don't present a particular problem since I have a salty tooth instead of a sweet tooth - but that also means it's a year round issue.
You asked for a typical day of eating clean for me. I'll write what I ate yesterday and then an option for something else:
6 am at track- cytomax 8:30 breakfast shake- Arbonne protein powder, flax meal, fiber, strawberries water mid morning 12:30- same shake water mid afternoon 5:00- salmon, quinoa with sundried tomatoes and pine nuts, corn 8:00 - apple, almonds, herbal tea with lemon
other choices instead of shakes: breakfast : scrambled eggs wrapped in gluten free brown rice tortilla, orange. Lunch- big spinach salad with veggies, almonds, walnuts, eggs or chicken , olive oil and apple cider vinegar.

Panettone, Baci chocolate kisses, cheesecake, tiramisu, and beer. LY, I put on nearly 10 pounds over the holiday season. Not on the plan this year.

And...those little tree shaped cookies from the cookie press, made with green food coloring of course....and green sprinkles.
I'll eat, and drink, almost anything.
