I'm addicted. I'm obsessed. Healthy eating.
I am throughly enjoying eating healthy/clean.
This weekend was Labor day weekend, so that meant get togethers with friends and family...and that meant food choice was going to be limited and it was going to be HARD to make healthy choices! But I was determined...I wasn't going to ruin all my hard work in one weekend.
Saturday's Meal: Big'z Burger Joint
Um, yes...a Burger Joint...red meat and all. Fries, potato chips and onion rings...where are the side salads people? Sheesh. But there it was...my saving grace...a grilled chicken sandwich. YES!
A grilled chicken sandwich on a wheat bun and a slice of pepper jack cheese. So me and my handsome hubby split that and a basket of homemade potato chips (oops! mistake!)...we left more the half the basket because...well...it just didn't seem right to keep stuffing our faces with them! ha :)
Sunday's Meal: Popeye's Chicken
WOW...fried chicken...fast food...FAT...yeah...
Pulled out my handy dandy cell phone and pulled up MyFitnessPal...frantically looking for the item with the least amount of calories. I guess 3 chicken tenders, corn on the cob and a nice greasy buttery biscuit was for lunch. But wait? What was the menu off to the side? Get up and Geux? Naked Chicken? YES! Naked Chicken Tenders, green beans and a piece of bruschetta bread instead of 260 calorie biscuit. It's always possible to eat healthy...even somewhere that is famous for their fried chicken.
Monday's Meal: Panera Bread
Mmmmmmm...I have been wanting to eat here for a long time but never had the chance. Well...I got my chance and I took it. Definitely will be eating here a lot more. I had their "PICK 2" meal...a small bowl of potato soup, classic green salad and a fuji apple :) oh so healthy and oh so good. I recommend this place any day...just stay away from the pastries!
Wish I would have taken pictures of my meals but...i didn't, lol :)
I hope everyone enjoyed their Labor Day Weekend <3
EAT HEALTHY. WORKOUT. GET FIT.
