One of the things that I am learning very quickly on this book tour is that moving around a lot lends one toward eating a lot of crap. For example, here was the menu for yesterday:
One bag of Dijon Mustard potato chips
Half a bag of honey roasted peanuts
Six Reisen chocolate candies
Four Red vines
One large Rice Krispy square (with mini M&Ms)
One Coke
Two Coke Zeroes
One Diet Coke (clearly I’m working through the Coke family)
One absurdly expensive acon cheeseburger with fries at about 10:30 pm, when I realized I actually hadn’t eaten, you know, food at any point during that day.
I don’t make the argument that the bacon cheeseburger was healthy or anything, mind you. It just wasn’t largely based on sugar or sugar substitutes.
The reason for this manifestly insane diet was basically that I was grazing while I was doing a number of things. The problem with this is, alas, that my metabolism has just sent me a note that reads, more or less, “Hey, just to let you know, I’m happily converting this all to fat. Thought you might like to know.”
Plan for the tour: Actually try not to eat too much crap. Otherwise I’ll come home looking like I ate a weather balloon. I don’t think that would be good.
