Chub Rub Is Not My Friend

I'm learning that I can't just do a twenty minute "Shred" session in the morning and expect to lose weight or feel good about what I've done for the day - so I went for a run outside to enjoy the gorgeous weather we're having in Chicago. There are people LINED UP AROUND THE BLOCK outside of my work so that they can get some free pizza thing. By the time they will get the pizza it'll probably be time for me to go home from work. Like, ok, if you're homeless and have nothing better to do, by all means, get the pizza. For the people who are expected to get their asses back to work, why on earth would you want to spend your free time standing in line for that crap?

Anyway, I went for my run and listened to my Jillian Michaels podcast, which was oddly motivating. My heart rate monitor said I burned something like 375 calories - which is different (less) than what The Daily Plate was going to give me for the 30 minute run. This is why I am in love with my heart rate monitor - it slaps me back into reality. "Bitch, you didn't just burn 500 calories!". It was a good run, but not thatgood. To top it all off, I got a bad case of chub rub - the kind that makes you feel as though your skin is going to peel off the moment you step foot into the shower. I had to find my happy place for a while but I'm doing alright now.

I need to warm up my lunch and get my azz back to work. First, here's a jam from a band called Band of Skulls that I think everyone will enjoy:
