Variety killed the cat?

I'm getting a little tired of my daily cuisine. For the last few days its been nothing but hot dogs. Yesterday i ate 13 hot dogs and a sprig of broccoli. Today i had 7 hot dogs for breakfast and lunch, and then 1.3 lbs of chicken for dinner. Tomorrow, I have 3 chicken breasts and 5 eggs to get through. Its been ok, because I spice it up quite nicely, but eating just meat might not be the best thing.

If I believe truly and wholeheartedly in Gary Taube's book Good Calories Bad Calories, it might be an ok (or ideal) diet. And honestly, the ~5 lbs I've gained while eating ridiculous amounts of challenge food and training food in the last month and a half has been well under what was expected. I think this is partially because I keep carbs and unnecessary calories to a limit during the week, and then splurge a little on weekends with the challenges and normal weekend activities. But on the other hand...

I can't wait until i start exercising again, and potentially be able to eat what I want. Or at least to spice it up a little bit with a variety of veggies, rather than try to focus on low carb ones.

Weight Watch: 180 lbs (after dinner)
