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!!!!

Not bad girl! I am still encouraged by this blog everyday. It is causing me to have more awareness of my body. I have been listening to my body instead of just feeding it when I am bored. Or at least I did tonight. I also made sure at the store to buy lot's of veggies to cut up and put in the fridge. I also bought healthier snacks for my family such as yogurt, triscuits, pretzels, apples and oranges, sunflower seeds and almonds and nature valley fruit and nut granola bars. All snacks they love anyway...just better than the higher fat snack crackers or chips and other junk.
BTW..not gonna lie those rolls and honey butter sound amazzzzzzzzing. :D But good job cutting down. Progress not perfection!!!
Good job.
Love Texas Roadhouse. I used to work there. I miss it. We have one next to work, but so far from home that it's impractical to eat there for dinner.
