I planned on eating at the Autumnfest today that our town puts on every year. Part of my new lifestyle is learning to eat no matter where I am, even if it means having to eat carny food.
There is absolutely nothing healthy at this place. I knew that before going. I planned to eat there anyway.
I walked around to see what all was available. I decided that I would have the cheese steak minus the cheese and the butterfly fries. Butterfly fries are potatoes thinly sliced into chips and deep fried. This was like the only "real" food to choose from. lol
So my MIL and I split the steak sandwich and the chips. The sandwich had thinly slices of beef, green & red bell peppers and onions on it. The chips were just plain salted. It really didn't taste all that great.
So we ate our lunch and about an hour later I was like... Dang, I cant believe I'm already hungry again. There was a different vendor selling grilled corn in the husk that I missed before on my search of food. So I got corn and ate it. Boy it was much tastier and I know so much better for me.
So the thing I learned is, Just because I plan for it doesn't mean it's going to keep me full enough to last till my next meal. This is something I'm going to write down and keep so I wont forget.
