So I know that some people might post more during SPRING BREAK, but that is not how I do life.
I'm not likely to post again for just a bit here, but fyi, I'm seemingly on more of a break from nutrition than I was before. In this town, beers and burgers really do jump into your hands, kinda in general, but because of SXSW specifically. However, I am escaping to Montana, so while people (such as me) typically don't eat the healthiest on vacation, I am going to a COW STATE with many STEAKS, which work well for me (up to a point...red meat every day = no.) Also, I don't know what's in Missoula at all, so I can't have any specific cravings.
I'm not going to do a full nutrition run-down of my break, which started on Friday at 4:05, and has included happy hours, dates, April time, Lushie time, Dottie Karate time, and a roller derby bout/brunch. But here are some things I remember consuming:
Spinach (see how innocent)
A Mint Julep (um...)
Other bourbon related dranks
Chicken and Waffles
Chicken salad with berries
Spinach and hummus
Salmon
P. Terrys with the damn fries
Chick Fil-A
Tacodeli Otto
Homemade (not by me, before anyone asks that dumbass question) Chicken Soup with Veggies
Shrimp salad
Micheladas
Coffee dammit
Something from El Chile
A million chips
Torchy's Democrat-- yes.
Small gelato
And best of all-East Side Kings- some Chicken Karage, Beet Fucking Fries, and the Brussel Sprout Salad For Winners
OK, this looks like I ate the whole world, but this is many days food. I promise.
From your disclaimer, I expected many greasy confessions! However, this is really quite a healthy selection. Why the "dammit" on the coffee?
ReplyDeleteChicken and Waffles, tacos, chips, and fries are healthy? Are there people who can eat that and NOT gain weight?
ReplyDeleteWhile it is true that I have somewhat lost my bearings with respect to reasonable indulgences, it may also be that I haven't made the amount of chips or bourbon clear here. Also, this makes it clear to me that my next post really should be about my nutrition plan.
Let me rephrase: Coffee? Yes, dammit.
Well it's all really spread out though and you had some healthy stuff in there too! I've been struggling with the weight thing for 15 years, but I finally figured out that I could count calories weekly instead of daily and it was far less painful. Unless you're actually trying to lose more weight, your week looks pretty normal for maintenance purposes. Though you're right, I didn't think about what quantities of bourbon there might have been. I have 2 drinks and I'm completely trashed.
