Tom and I went to Niagara Falls this past weekend. We missed the whole Nik Walenda thing and came down Saturday. I was extremely good. I didn't count points, but I drank a ton of water, ate a healthy breakfast before leaving saturday, stopped at a Grocery store and picked up fruit and veggies to snack on, I did have a pulled pork sandwich at Ribfest, but I only ate a couple bites of the bun! Saturday night we went to Brasa. A brazilian steakhouse where Brazilian cowboys come around to your table with different cuts of meat that are roasted and carried around on swords and slice off a piece for you. They also bring around roasted pineapple in the same fashion (So yum!). I started with a big salad with one tablespoon of sun-dried tomato oil and vinegar dressing, then only had a couple of bites of about 5 different kinds of meat. I had about half a pineapple :). I had a martini but I skipped dessert.
We walked from our hotel right down to the falls, quite a hike! and walked around downtown a bit.
Sunday we went to Cora's. My favorite breakfast place.

Then we went to my brothers for Fathers Day. We brought veggies and dip as snacks. My sister and Niece were watching the girls and met us there. I gotta say, "Sorry for the poop in the hot tub!" Lesson learned. Always pack swim diapers!!!
I did have a couple handfuls of potato chips and a hamburger (with a bun). But again I skipped dessert!
I'm still dealing with the side effects of being on Iron supplements. I'm sure I'm going to be in the bathroom all day today and maybe I'll be a couple of pounds lighter tomorrow, lol!
I must be getting old, I'm focusing on poop way more now than I ever did!
I'm a new follower! I also just started my new diet yesterday so was looking for some good hints and tips! love your blog!!

Great job starting! That was me just 8 short months ago and look at me now! Over 50 pounds gone! My one tidbit of advice, don't deprive yourself of anything you like. Just make sure it's worth it and only have a little bit :). I'd never survive if I couldn't eat what I want! Good luck!!!
DeleteThis whole vacation sounds amazing! Especially that brasas ;) even though the scale is up, it sounds like you were healthy and making great choices. I wouldn't be too upset about that number, and I bet next week you'll have those three off! Btw- that breakfast looks scrumptious!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! That wasn't the official weigh in, that's not until tomorrow. I've been in the bathroom more times than I can count! So im not too worried :)
Deleteoh your breakfast foods sounds yummy. but it sounds like you did a great job subbing fruits for other snacks. :) for that you rock.
ReplyDeleteLOL sorry about the poop in the hot tub :)
:). My brother was a good sport about it. He's no stranger to kids and their poop!
