It's Saturday mates, even though I'm recording this as it's about to become Sunday here in Orlando. I got caught up watching the Tennessee Titans play the Jacksonville Jaguars. Spoiler alert, Jacksonville won.
Today was... a setback day. I'll be straight up honest with everyone. The morning was fine. I had a decent breakfast. A sausage and egg burrito with onions and peppers. I had my coffee. Things were trucking along. Then we had lunch and went to a Mexican place. I'm not sure how badly I ate. I tried to choose the best I could. I had 2 enchiladas with mole sauce. I also had some of the refried beans on the side and a forkful of rice. I did however not eat any of the chips and salsa on the table. Small victory there. My mother in law made a caribbean soup for dinner, with chicken, potatoes, and dumplings in it. I ate some of the chicken, but the carbs got me. I had few bites of potato and dumpling. And then, I had cookies. Pillsbury chocolate chip cookies I made in the oven for the evening. I'm not going to kick myself and beat myself up too badly about it... but I know I need to do better. And I know I can do better.
I also realized I talk about chicken and eggs a lot on the podcast, especially in my titles. I groaned internally yesterday when I saw them. So mates, I'll do my best to try not to reference it as much as I did this week.
Tell me how your weekend has gone so far with eating. Do you have any tips or tricks when you go out to eat? Trust me, I looked for healthier options... but those healthier options came with a pretty hefty price increase.
