Day 11

Aaack! In the last few days I have had to eat out too too much!

I think I'm pretty good at making healthy decisions but yesterday I got duped TWICE! For lunch I ordered a blackened chilean sea bass sandwich that came with tomato, sprouts, onions, coleslaw, and a side of sweet potato fries. To avoid temptation I asked my waiter not to bring any fries and instead he gave me a side of steamed broccoli. Amazing. However, when the sandwich came to the table I bit down and there was a hearty glob of mayo on top! Nowhere in the description did it say that the sandwich came with mayo! Yick. Then, at dinner I ordered a grilled vegetable salad with grilled shrimp and dressing on the side. Sounds pretty healthy but let me tell you, that salad did not even need dressing because the grilled vegetables had enough olive oil on them to grease up the whole bowl. Geez.

It is sooooo much harder to eat well when you eat out! These past few days were extenuating circumstances, I had friends in from out of town, but I need to get it together. Don't get me wrong, I still counted calories and adjusted in the unexpected influx. And I didn't splurge or binge or doing anything too insane. I'm putting myself on house arrest for the next few days, at least as far as eating goes.
