Today’s Food:
Breakfast (on-the-go):
- Hot vanilla at Coffee Bean– sugar-free and with skim
- Croissant
Lunch:
- Omelette with 2 egg and matbucha (<— try this!!!)
- 1 fat free yougurt
Before dinner Drinking:
- 2.5 glasses of merlot
Dinner:
- Had dinner reservations with Rachel!
- 3/4 of a roll (MAN I love bread! ugh!)
- 1 glass of wine
- small green salad
- Chicken breast with mustard sauce!
It was *very* yummy, and it was definitely the healthiest looking option on the menu.
Dessert:
- Despite our hearty meal, we couldn’t resist– so we shared a creme brulee– very good. We were at a kosher meat restaurant, which means that the dessert had no dairy products, so I’m not quite sure how they made it. Anyway, sharing a dessert was a good move, because I’m sure that I would have devoured it on my own..
^ Creme Brulee that we shared
- 2/19 started out as a beautiful day; I’d had a great night the night before — with a certain someone, even if we’re completely dysfunctional and don’t know what we want– and I left his place in the morning, you know, sort of bouncing– totally ready for the day. I think that it helped me make relatively healthy choices through lunch. My mood SERIOUSLY affects what I eat.
- The croissant wasn’t the healthiest choice, but it wasn’t too big and it didn’t have anything in it. Still, just empty carbs and calories and I didn’t feel satisfied after eating it. I’m going to make more of an effort to pack breakfast when I’m on-the-go. Still, I need some suggestions for breakfasts on-the-go, because sometimes it’s inevitable… anyone?
- Eating out went well, I think. The only thing that I wish I’d skipped was the 3/4 of a roll. Very unnecessary, and it was white bread, too. The problem was that it was out there before the food and I was *so hungry*. Anyone have an strategies for avoiding before meal bread at restaurants? I ended up eating the whole main course and not taking any home, but honestly– I wasn’t stuffed. I was full. And satisfied.
- Drank 3.5 glasses of wine, which is a lot, but if I only do that when I go to nice restaurants, I’ll allow myself the indulgence. Same goes for splitting a dessert.
All in all, I feel good about today. Eating a decadent meal at a restaurant didn’t make me feel guilty, mostly because it’s such an infrequent thing.
I came home to my laptop charger having been fried! I have to replace it, but I don’t know how or when, so bear with me if my posts are less frequent. Probably not, though– I always find a way. Anyway, stressed about this. My computer is my right hand!
I’m thinking about what I need to do about my lactose intolerance. Stop eating dairy, or lactaid pills. Leaning towards the lactaid
Cheers to all 🙂
