I had to work today.
Long Beach is 1 1/2 hours away so that means that i had to drive 3 hours total today. Additionally, I had to help my husband with the two extra dogs I agreed to dogsit before I left the house.
I was able to have breakfast though, 3 eggwhites with 1/4 tsp bee pollen and an ounce of feta.
The good news is that I didn't eat with any of my clients today. Normally I have a little something with each of them (we meet at restaraunts) and I blow my diet. Today I said "I can't eat anything today because I'm on a diet bet" and every one was cool with it. It wasn't even difficult to watch everyone else eat, because I was so busy.
After work I was exhausted so my husband took me to Souplantation. Normally I don't even pay attention to calorie counts but today I looked everything up on sparkpeople BEFORE I got there so I had a game plan.
I started with TWO plates instead of one in the salad line. I loaded up on anything with color: greens carrots cabbage, etc. Then I topped it off with rice wine vinegar and some sesame seeds. This helped me to stay away from the pizza. I was saving some calories for soup, but none of them looked good.
What REALLY made me decline dessert was watching all the unsupervised little kids at the dessert station. I love kids, but I really didn't want to share any of their germs so I declined.
After I got home I still had about 200 calories left, so I splurged with 1/2 ounce of cashews and a heaping tablespoon (about 1/1/2 tbsp) of dark chocolate chips.
It was a great day all in all.
Thanks DietBet!
