Day Thirty-two

Better late than never.  Here's the Saturday report.  First off, it's weigh in day and again still haven't broken the 250 barrier.  Came in at 252.  Bummed out a bit but moving on.  It's also that time again to meet with L and it's the last one in this series of sessions.  I have decided to continue for now and see if we can make magic happen.  Ha, I think that's up to me but I need a little help to get there.  L has provided that help and I welcome her continued participation in Project AL.  Here's the food story for the day:

Breakfast: Oatmeal with cottage cheese (two spoonfuls) and a tblsp of honey.  20oz of cold water.

Lunch: Was going to have Subway foot long w/roast beef and because the foot long is only $5 I would take the meat and put it all on half of the sandwich.  If you get double meat it costs more than the foot long when they're $5.  The place was packed (duh) so skipped that and came home and had a salad.  Probably better for me anyway.  It was a big salad though with lots of stuff including a salmon patty and quinoa.  I added the roasted cauliflower and asparagus and yam.  Cottage cheese and salsa rounded it out.

Snack: Wasn't planning on a snack as I had plans to attend a birthday party for a couple of my co-workers.  I stopped by my Sat nite DnD group to hang out before meeting up with the B'day party and ended up snacking there.  I had enough donut holes to equal one and a half donuts and a small handful of chips.

Dinner: Went to a Mexican restaurant and did a fairly good job of restraint.  Considering it was a party, food and drink were flowing, I feel rather proud of how I did.  As you know at a Mexican restaurant they always bring out the chips and salsa.  I did have some but feel I ended up on the positive side in the balance game.  I ordered from the single combo list and actually was very happy.  I got a chili releno and it came with just the chili and beans and rice.  I got corn tortillas and it had guacamole.  I did have a big marquita but drank water the rest of the night.  I did have some more chips but still kept it under control, at least I think I did. One of my co-workers did offer me some of her quesedilla and I had 1/6 (that was how it was cut).  I certainly ate way less than I would have if it would have been a normal Saturday night.

All in all not bad for the situation I was in.
