A small victory
Seems like the last few days flew by, with little chance to post! Not helped by a lengthy ISP outage last night, thanks to a cut cable up in Kennewick.
Anyway, all is going well... I had killer water aerobics on Wednesday, but then found my feet bothering me quite a bit afterwards. Hubby and I went to see The Spiderwick Chronicles... which was just OK, I enjoyed it, as I like going to the movies, but didn't feel it was a great movie in any respect. I've never read the books, they might be better.
However, I was pretty stiff and sore getting out of that theater seat! My good intentions of fixing us dinner had totally evaporated. We decided to go out and eat instead.
So, we drove up the hill to Shari's. They were offering wild caught salmon with rice pilaf on the menu. I didn't really want the pilaf, because I DID very much want a bowl of butternut squash soup and I figured having both would be loading the carbs too heavy.
So I asked the waitress if they could OMIT the rice and double the veggies (broccoli/cauliflower). She said sure! I probably should not have had the soup, since it was a starchy carb and too long after my workout, but I decided it could be a 10% meal for the week. I ate the four saltine crackers that came with the soup as well. And my dinner roll. I'm a bit of a bread addict, sigh. But otherwise, not too bad for a 10% meal!
Oh, and hubby ordered a salad, but asked if he could have a garlic shrimp skewer, as they had it listed next to a different dinner that you could order extras. I'm afraid I followed his lead and also had a shrimp skewer. So extra protein in that meal! Good muscle food though!
I still count it a victory, I made a change for the positive with my order.
