So, this was my first official weekend in the world of reality. We headed out to Austin for my neice's 4th birthday party and I was exposed to the ugly underbelly that IS birthday party food. But, it could have been much worse. At least my in laws are pretty health conscious people. I ate banana and kiwi and a bit of chex mix and 2 mini pig in a blankets: one with white bread and one with wheat. Of course I had a little cake and a small scoop of Chocolate Covered Cherry Ice Cream too. But, I tried to remember PORTION SIZE!
While I can't account for how many calories I took in at the party, I was aware of what I ate for the rest of the day and recorded it down as usual. I have learned that CHICKFILA has an AWESOME website with a nutrion CALCULATOR that helps you quickly and easily assess all you eat there. VERY HELPFUL! KUDDOS FOR THEM! I also discovered Starbucks' new SKINNY LATTE line, and imagine my delight when I knew I could have Cinnamon Dolce Latte in the appropriately snappy cold weather and not feel TOO GUILTY for it. It's a beverage thats COMPLETELY DOABLE in my Calorie Budget.
PS - Friday, I weighed myself at school and I am down 2 more lbs. 7 lbs in 2 weeks! Yay!
