Tonight was my cheat meal...I was totally planning on making taco soup. Sadly the kids were getting a little exhausting and needed to get out of the house. When I realized that we were in the car in another town and it was dinner time.
So we went to Texas Roadhouse. If given the opportunity I would eat well made steak everyday for the remainder of my days.
My old normal steakhouse routine:
Couple of alcoholic drinks/sodas
Appetizer/salad with a ton of dressing
Rolls with honey butter
More drinks
Steak, rare, 8-16oz (with all of it eaten) or Prime Rib, (as large as I can get)
French fries or potatoes for a side and maybe a veggie (loaded)
Yuck, reading that makes me kind of sick.
This cheat meal routine:
Water, LOTS of water
11oz Sirlion, rare (under half eaten, brought home for Jon to eat at breakfast)
Half mashed potatoes (plain, no gravy, cheese, butter, nothing)
I ordered green beans, but they brought them with all sorts of stuff on it. Bacon, butter, tons of salt and floating in some sort of liquid. I decided that since I didn't know what it as, I would just avoid it.
Now here is where my *over done it* cheat came to play....
Rolls. And. Honey. Butter.
Okay okay, I had two of them, they were sooooooo good! I figured I would just enjoy myself since I really have been dong as well as I would like myself to currently. And I did...I sure did.
But so happy I didn't have anything else to drink but water. I love water, cold and so refreshing! I have not had a pop/soda in over 2 weeks! This is an impressive step for me! And I will admit it, I am proud of myself.
Anyway, not a terrible cheat and not a diet meal. Just sort of in the middle.
Night!!!!
