What Have I Done?

I worked hard today, all week actually, and in between the gaps ran about 30 kms. I picked Andrea up from work, her last day, had a few wines then ate a pack of crisps. A 150 gram pack. I turned it over, there are 187 calories in 40 grams of these mother fuckers. 187, that’s 9% of your daily intake of calories. That’s the amount of calories it costs to move my arse around for 20 minutes. That’s 4.6 calories a gram. White rice, on the other hand, is about 1.3 calories per gram. So, when I did my 6kms, about 600 calories, I ate them all back with one bag of crisps.

HOW

IS

THIS

POSSIBLE?

It was an accident. I’ve never, ever, looked at the nutritional value of crisps. How do they pack such goodness into such a small amount of space? And why are you still hungry afterward? What kind of world are we living in? I am drunk. Cuba.
