Today was day 3 on program. I was having all kinds of cravings. Because of this, I packed extra veggies with hummus for snacking. It worked as I made it through the day.
When I got home around 5:15 p.m. I was all set to make dinner (grilled tilapia, broccoli and a side salad with an boiled egg (I needed to get my veggies in). However, there were NO LIGHTS or heat in my home. I called the electric company and learned that someone had hit the main street pole and there was an outage with a ETA of 2 hours. Oh no, I was starving and cook not see anything to cook. So the hubby and I went to Applebees. After scouring the menu, I decided to get Smothered Grilled Chicken which consisted of A grilled chicken breast smothered with sautéed mushrooms, peppers, onions, and melted Monterey Jack & cheddar cheeses. Served with garlic mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables. The only difference was, I substituted big time. I did have the grilled chicken with the mushrooms, peppers and onions and had it served on a bed of lettuce and a tomato. Instead of the mashed potates and seasonal veggies, I had a double order of broccoli. I was so happy about the chose I made and it filled me up.
My hubby ordered chicken sandwich and fries and while it looked good, I passed. I did not even take a fry and eat it. I made it through....this is so huge for me. I am super excited.
Just thought I would share. I am home now and of course the lights are back on.
How was your day?
I passed the TEST, truly I am excited
