Bad Chinese

Hi guys -

I can't believe I missed a night.  As you may remember I had a dinner for work yesterday evening.  I was a bit worried because the person who chose the restaurant picked a place that, per Yelp, was great for Dim Sum, but not so much for dinner. 

Yelp was right!  I was so controlled yesterday and ate a bunch of 0 calorie items during the day so I had almost all of my points ready for dinner.  Unfortunately, I didn't get much of a chance to use them.  It was REALLY bad.  Some of the group were late so we tried to order some appetizers.  Who heard of a Chinese restaurant not having egg rolls??  The Chinese chicken salad didn't even have lettuce or cabbage!  Anyway, we got a pre-set menu for 10 people.  The two best dishes had shrimp and scallops with fresh veggies in a light sauce.  The "fried" rice was really jasmine rice with a bit of scrambled egg on top and this gravy mixture on top.  Needless to say, I didn't use very many points!

Unfortunately, the drive home was not pleasant.  Something did not sit well so I decided it was best for me to just head to bed and not to write anything.

It was fun seeing my co-workers from Amsterdam and Australia, but the rest of the evening, not so much.

I was proud of myself that I was able to stay within my points and plan for a meal throughout the day.  I hope I can keep it up!

Because of my tummy, I didn't eat a lot today.  I had a banana for breakfast (at noon) and a sweet potato for dinner.  That really helped me so I had some string cheese for some protein. 

I think I'm going to weigh in tomorrow rather than Saturday.  I just need to sleep in one day a week!  Keep your fingers crossed!

xxoo
