How I eat -- at home vs. away

Here's how I eat when I'm at home: A salad comprised of lettuce, green pepper, grape tomatoes, cucumber, carrots, and 1/4 cup of grilled chicken that totals about 200 calories, plus a coconut water.

Compare that with how I eat when I'm away on business trips. A grilled shrimp risotto with a Moscow mule, and when that was done, a peanut butter milk stout from the Belching Beaver Brewery. Total calories -- I don't know, but it was way more than 200, that's for sure. (The restaurant was right next door to the hotel and gave a 10% discount.)

I love getting per diem allowances.
