Today was going great foodwise, until we went to a restaurant for my son's birthday tonight. It's a restaurant where the portions for one person are about enough to feed a family of four. And it might have a few stuffed animal heads around for decoration. You know which one I mean.
I attempted to stick with my calorie allowance by ordering one of the four things listed on the "lighter side" part of the menu. A turkey burger- sounded pretty good. It looked good too. Now I'm sure you've guessed that it really didn't taste so good.
As a matter of fact, it reminded me of the turkey I ate at the hospital recently. Yea. Not what I was hoping for. So I uncharacteristically sent it back and had them give me half a club sandwich (I was too afraid to order off the light menu again).
I really don't know how many calories that had. Most likely too many because it tasted really good. Part of me is still wondering if it was spit on though. I always assume that my food will be tampered with when I send something back. (I've probably done that 3 times in my lifetime because I fear the spit!) So that just gives you an idea how inedible this sandwich was- that I was willing to risk the spit!
I think I'll count the sandwich I ate as 650 calories - what the original sandwich was supposed to be. Kind of like how they charged me the original price for the food I sent back even though that's not what I ended up with. (Not something I would do often, but sometimes you just have to roll with it)
Other than that, it was a great day. The baby slept and I got to walk for 35 minutes on the treadmill and finish watching Persuasion. Yay! It was lovely
Didn't get a chance to weigh myself this morning. I'll check it tomorrow.
