Well we made it to Monday. This was a tough Monday because of Daylight Savings Time. Totally forgot to replace the batteries in my smoke detector. It's on my grocery shopping list now!

 

This weekend was pretty hectic. After I got out of work, I walked with a group of women that I take the train with from my job to the train station, which is probably about 1/2 mile walk it's just in a dangerous neighborhood--safety in numbers. I wasn't out of breath and walking a lot faster than the other two lol.

 

I got home, showered, changed went to the dbf house. We went to the mall I had to pick up some body wash and other things at Bath and Body Works (my favorite store in the mall!) for my vacation later this month. After that dbf wanted to cook for me, but we were both too tired, I treated him to sushi down the street.

 

Now we go to this sushi restaurant ALL THE TIME this is always my test to see if I have real restriction, alas this time, I could eat sushi, but I was full quick. But, wait let me get to the best part of this story....

 

The last time I was there I ordered Ketel One and cranberry juice, the woman who made them poured the drinks perfectly. One and I was good. We get seated and asked what we want to drink dbf asks for coke I ask for "ketel one and cranberry". The waiter comes back with a drink menu for frozen drinks and asks "do you want one of these instead?" uh, no I'm good. I go "all you have to do is pour Ketel one into a short glass with some ice and a splash of cranberry juice" I said this in a NICE way. Then I asked for water too because I had a feeling there was a large language barrier here. Five minutes later the waiter comes up and says "we don't have any vodka" I say "what kind of vodka do we have?" he goes "no vodka at all" seriously????? So I ask for a water again. Needless to say it took 5 times to get water for me, and by then I didn't want it bc I don't drink when I eat.

 

I ordered edamame and this crab salad I'm obsessed with, one thing of shrimp tempura and some sushi. I didn't get stuck, but the band is still there. LOL. So I'm hoping next fill will get me into the "green zone". I paid for our dinner, left a horrible tip (the service sucked!) and as we are leaving the restaurant, there is the bar and guess what is there? KETEL ONE! I hate being lied to! My poor dbf I thought he was going to die laughing. I was pissed. Oh well, maybe next time.

 

Saturday morning I went to the gym to complete week 2 of c25k (week 3 starts today oh boy) did some laundry, then got ready to go out to dinner with my dbf my friend and her husband. We went to this Mexican restaurant in town, which is way too expensive for what they serve. I felt so bad for my dbf he asked for a taco plate and they bring out these three mini tacos. There really wasn't a lot of food. We had shots of tequila, there killed my appetite. I had shrimp and scallop cerviche wasn't that great.....def won't be going back. Went out to play pool after had more drinks, after that the night was fuzzy......ugh.

 

Sunday we woke up to a crying cat who was HUNGRY! So we got up, I fed the cat, and we headed up the Newburgh, NY to meet my parents for brunch. My dbf, a smoker, was dying for a cigarette. We went to the truck stop near my house. I got a ton of Powerade Zero and a coke (I was hoping the bubbles would help induce some sort of vomiting----I know it's not good, but I had to throw up!). Ugh they had Easter candy out. I got two reese peanut butter eggs and a cadbury creme egg gosh darn Easter I hate it!

 

But on a good note, I drank the coke, didn't puke and realized how gross coke is. I used to drink it all the time, now I stay away from sodas.

 

We got to the diner, had brunch, well actually we all had lunch lol. I ordered a tuna melt and only ate 1 1/2 of the sandwich, didn't touch the fries I was surprised with myself. Maybe this is going to work out!

 

Got home from that, tried to make breakfast, lunch and dinner for the week. Got as far as breakfast. I'll work on lunch today after the gym (baked falafels) and just have a lean cuisine for dinner (I know they're horrible you don't have to tell me twice!)

 

Hope everyone had a good weekend!
