The road to onion rings is paved with good intentions

Saturday started off so well ... watch how quickly the wheels fall off the bus.

Meal #1: McDonald's mocha latte (no whipped cream); 3 scrambled omega-3 eggs with organic salsa; red grapes
Our coffee maker broke, so we have to go out for coffee til we replace it. The temptation was to just get FOOD from McDonald's since we were already going to be there but I told Eric I would just whip up something quick while he ran out. Pretty proud of that one. :)

Meal # 2: Salad at Ciccio's with chicken, red grapes, walnuts, shredded zucchini, squash and carrots. Olive oil and vinegar instead of the dressing it came with.
A perfect lunch ... protein (chicken), fat (walnuts and olive oil), and low-glycemic carbs (veggies)

Meal # 3: 1/2 an apple with Sunbutter
We were car shopping all day. I knew it would be a while before dinner so we stopped at home to grab a quick snack, trying to keep blood sugar levels as stable as possible.

Meal # 4: Onion rings (with sauce); broccoli cheese casserole; two buffalo chicken fingers with Ranch dressing; water to drink
Remember I mentioned wheels would be falling off. Well, here you go. This was about 8:30 p.m. at Cheddar's. Again, car shopping all day. Totally drained. Starving. Yet also - celebrating - because I got a new Jeep Commander!! So excited. I would have been disappointed in us for being such stereotypical American consumers ... gorging ourselves with fried food in celebration of some silly milestone. But the onion rings were just so damn good!! I'd be lying if I said it wasn't worth it. :)

Workout: Yeah, right. Did I mention car shopping??
