So, Friday afternoon I did walk with my sister for 25 minutes. And I was pretty good when DH and I went out for supper. We went to Applebee's so we could eat off of the WW menu. We had the tortilla chicken melt for an appetizer. Yum. Then I had the Mesquite Chicken Salad. It was good, but I didn't like the dressing which came on the side (thank goodness!), so I got light ranch instead. That probably made it a little more fattening, but not too much.
So Friday:
Breakfast - Cheerios w/ milk
Lunch - Veggie soup w/ a mini wheat bagel (finally finished that soup!)
Dinner - 1/2 tortilla chicken melt, and Mesquite chicken salad = c-490, f-11
totals for the day = Cal - 979! fat - 21 Pretty good considering we ate out!
I didn't get hungry either. I did have a margarita, I almost forgot! Add like 200 calories there. But I did close my kitchen on time!
Saturday
Lunch was a Healthy Choice dinner. Dh & I went to a dance w/ my parents in the evening. It was set up so that you bring your on food and booze. There were 2 other couples meeting us there and the plan was to share all of our food. I knew this was going to be trouble. I couldn't even begin to try to count calories and fat. I know that it wasn't good. The food was Really good though. We had lil' smokies, shrimp, chicken tenders, subs (these were good/healthy cause DH made them), veggie tray, fritos w/ some kind of dip, cheese, pimento cheese sandwiches, bite size brownies, and the chocolate cookies that I made (high fiber). I ate some of all that I listed I tried to go easy on the really bad stuff and eat the lighter stuff. I even brought my own light ranch because I knew the veggie tray would have the full fat stuff. For drinks I had Pepsi w/ vanilla vodka. I probably had 4 throughout the night.
We got there at 7pm and the music started at 7:30. We danced and danced and danced. I felt Seriously out of shape!! I used to do this almost every night of the week before I met DH, but I can tell it has been a Long time! We took breaks every so often. We left at 11:30. I estimate that we danced for at least 2 hours of the time that we were there! It was really nice because DH does not usually dance and he was like "I'm here, so we're gonna dance". I am going to count 70 minutes toward my exercise challenge for Saturday, because I am sure at least that much of it was good heart pumping exercise
I was beat when we got home, but I did not sleep well at all.
Sunday -
We got up in time for lunch. It was my aunt's birthday, so my grandma went all out. She had my favorite - Macaroni and Cheese!! Yummy! I couldn't resist eating more than I should have. We also had pork loin, green beans, lima beans, and black eyed peas. And of course a cake. It is a spice cake which isn't very appealling to me. I ate a small piece anyway, but I won't eat any more of it. What is so funny about this meal is that my aunt has been on a strict diet for a long time now and she won't even eat anything that we have at Sunday dinner. She brings a tv dinner and eats that. Which is VERY smart on her part.
Dh and I decided to be lazy for the most part yesterday. We layed on the couch, watched Olympics and read ALL day! For dinner we had some of the leftover subs w/ the peas, beans, and mac n cheese from lunch. There is mac n cheese left, but I WILL NOT eat any more.
Late in the evening I was hungry so I had cereal w/ milk, since I didn't have breakfast.
I don't really know what my total calorie and fat intake for yesterday was. I am sure it was bad w/ the Mac n Cheese.
So far today only breakfast and coffee. I am hungry after all that food talk though and it is past lunch time, so I will eat soon. Going to have leftover sub and probably some veggies in ranch or an apple.
