I have to say that last night was so fun and I'm very very proud of myself. A friend of mine had been promising the kids she would take them to Chuck E Cheese ever since my daughter dropped her "makeup" from Chuck E Cheese in to the mop bucket at the new apartment and we had to throw it away. So last night was the night and I was excited, but SUPER nervous about the challenges that awaited. A large cheese pizza plopped itself right in front of me and there was a machine with ice cream that was only $1.00!! Rather than pizza and ice cream which would have completely violated the challenge rules, I chose romaine lettuce and spinach topped with hard boiled eggs, bacon bits, sunflower seeds, cucumber, tomatoes, etc from the salad bar! Yes, I used REAL full fat ranch dressing, but we're not worrying too much about fat content at this point, so I used it sparingly and rocked the salad bar.
Today I haven't had to battle cravings yet and I've kept myself satisfied with carrots and hummus, chicken breast, and apples so far. I still have almonds, more apples, a whole cucumber, and peanut butter in my drawer here at work, so there are still plenty options to keep me out of the snack shop.
Tonight I haven't decided on yet....maybe the mexican concoction I referred to yesterday for dinner...we'll see what the evening brings :)
Best of luck to all the challenge participants!
