Three open meals goes quickly!!

Log for Friday ... If you've been reading along, then you know I was shooting for only three "open meals" this week. Going into Friday, I've already had two, so it's not looking good for the weekend. :( Let's not count our chickens though.

Meal # 1: 2 omega-3 enriched eggs, over hard; 1 pc. nitrate-free bacon; 1/2 an orange; 1 tbs. sunbutter
Only had 4 pcs. of bacon left in the fridge. Gave 3 to the hubby. Figured there was enough protein in the eggs; should be fine without that second piece. :)

Meal # 2: 1 oz. unsalted almonds; other 1/2 orange; 3 pcs. bacon
Brought the orange with me. Knew I had almonds at my desk for a little fat. Figured I could buy some sort of protein at the cafeteria at work.

Meal # 3: Mixed greens and spinach salad with chicken breast, banana peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, sunflower seeds, olive oil and vinegar
A pretty perfect lunch, I'd say ...

Meal # 4: Panera pastry
I know!!! I wasted my third open meal on a pastry!! It's so senseless. I was out of snacks at work and there were a ton leftover pastries from one of our vendor events next to my desk, STARING AT ME. I told them to leave me alone and I got up with my dollar to get trail mix out of the vending machine. But they were out!!! What do I do? Starve? Eat something equally junky and sugar-loaded out of the machine? Or just go for the (free) pasry. I somehow convinced myself it was the best option at the time.

Meal # 5: Sushi
We went to a wine tasting for a friend. I proudly eschewed the cheese and crackers. But by the time the party was dying down around 8:30, I was ready to eat my own arm off. And the birthday girl wanted sushi. How can you say no? :-) (No worries, cyber-friends, I did not subject my baby to any raw fish. All cooked rolls.)

Workout: Sadly, none
