Baked Pork Tenderloin

From The Bob Green Best Life Diet Cookbook: Baked Pork Tenderloin 4 cloves garlic 1 tbsp olive oil 2 tbsp chili powder 2 tbsp dark br sugar 1tsp ground cumin 1 tsp dried oregano 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder 1/4 tsp salt 1 lb pork (tenderloin or other boneless cut) 1. Combine all ingredients except pork in a food processor and process until it becomes a paste, about 2 min. 2. Rub the pork with the mixture and allow to marinate at room temperature for 1 hr or in fridge for up to 24 hrs. 3. Preheat oven to 375 deg. F. 4. Place in baking pan and bake for 20 - 25 min (140 deg). Note: we grilled chops, rather than baking pork loin. The rub was incredible.

It was Tim's birthday (and our anniversary is the 12th -- 5 years!), so we got a babysitter and went out to dinner. Like regular adult people. We tried a restaurant called the South Congress Cafe, which we found to be okay, not great. Afterwards, we walked down to Amy's and got some ice cream. We finished up with a dip in the hot tub, something that we don't get to do often, at least at the same time. All in all, a very pleasant evening, even though we were falling asleep by 10:30, as we are wont to do. Oh well, the life a parent (of infants).

Make mine with chocolate

So, my question is, if you take a walk (you know, for fitness), does it still count if you have a chocolate croissant along the way? Just wondering.
