Okay ladies and gents,here's one for the "strange but true" section of the day. I went to the gym this afternoon, did my cardio and swam some laps, took a shower and was leaving when,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,what's that smell????:grumble: :grumble: It's open house at the gym for members to bring folks in, aka open house and they are serving free pizza right by the weight machines.................:noway: :noway:

:noway: I'll have you know, I walked right past (although I did look at several pieces..:laugh: ), very strange to see people with pizza getting ready to do abs!:bigsmile:

That was my success for the day and I had earned enough calories that I could've had it if I wanted to........ah but no. But I was hungry when me and bf got home :tongue:

    Ewwwwww :sick:

    When my gym did that, we had huge trays of fresh fruits and veggies and little samples of energy bars and protein cookies. Pizza may be the WORST pre or peri-workout meal EVER lol!

    Oh I can so believe it and it makes me stratch my head. My dh used to go to physical therapy at the gym and they had cake and other goodies every once in awhile out on a table to help yourself too. :noway:

    Congratulations on walking right by, you should be proud of yourself! :flowerforyou:

    way to go porka!
    that would be a toughie 4 me cause i'm hungry when i leave the gym!
  • Pizza would be sooo hard for me to resist. Good job! It is kinda crazy that they had it at the gym though. I wonder how I would look on the eliptical...with a slice of pizza in my hand.
  • my last gym used to have wine and cheese nights! I think a fruit dish and some bottled water would have been a much better idea for an after workout snack!

    Okay, I guess I should expand, they did have a vegetable tray and fruit, but I only had eyes on the pizza. Now BF has told me that it was the whole wheat crust (he actually asked a trainer :laugh: :laugh: ) and organic sauce....so I guess not as bad but still weird.:grumble:
