    Well I'm at my last pick up. It's been a day.

    I had a half a cantaloupe, and an avacado left from my lunch.

    But as I said, it's been a day, and very much wanted to self medicate with a cheeseburger meal deal ( less the soda, haven't had one of those in like 3 years ).

    Well, I hate myself.

    Here's how it turned out.

    I hate cantaloupe, so I pick the burger. Can I get Avacado on the burger?

    Well, you got the healthy fats from the avocado. And the cantaloupe is nutrient dense.

    But the meal lacks protein. Some skinless chicken (enough to fit in the palm of your hand) would've been good.

    Cantaloupe is poisonous... plus, it tastes like ####.

    Did I mention it will kill you?

    Watermelon is the way, the truth and the life.

    That's just what was left. Had a, about 8 ounce top sirloin, large garden salad, 8 Oz of berries earlier.

    Also might I add, for the cantaloupe half, and the cado, had like $0.70 invested.

    The McDonald's would have been $5.

    I'm confused, Dave. You hate yourself for making the healthy choice, or because you made the healthy choice, then STILL went in for the cheeseburger?

    Okay, that explains it. I just prefer to have some protein with my meals as it helps satiety and minimize any insulin spikes.
