Today was a lazy day for like me. I spent 90% of it on my couch.  I worked out this morning for maybe an hour.  30 minutes of a bodyweight workout of the day and 28 minutes of my Couch to 10k Android app. I decided to have a cheat meal of a McDonald's peppermint mocha coffee with whip cream,  which ended up being a bad decision because  now my belly is not happy.  I'm still following the Paleo diet as closely as I can.  I made sriracha tilapia and also made the same dish using shrimp  today and I'll post the link to the recipe as soon as I find it.
