Today I ate out twice.. once at the mall food court, then later at Applebee's for dinner. Lunch was a huge disappointment. I had a "Lo Carb Combo" at one of the oriental places. It had chicken & vegetables. The chicken was full of fat & gristle. The vegetables were bland & undercooked. I won't eat there again! I would have been better off with a Salad at Subway, which will be my choice next time.
For dinner I took the kiddos to Applebee's. I had an extra kid in tow & we were right there anyway to meet my daughter to pick up my grandson. I had their Spinach & Shrimp Salad. You can get a half portion which is still a good amount. Only 4.5 Carbs in the half portion & that is all in the hot bacon dressing. I have them go light with it or put it on the side & I mix what I want.
Other than a big chunk of burnt "char" from the grill, the salad was great. (They took it off my bill & gave me a fresh salad to go.)It has fresh baby spinach, grilled shrimp, roasted red peppers, almonds, & red onion (I omit the onion).
Found some tea I like at Teavana which I posted earlier. I drank my 1 bottle of water so far today & may get another bottle in before my day is done thanks to the MIO water enhancer. A good day!
Truth: About 1:00am this morning I ate a Chips Deluxe Peanut Butter Cup Cookie.. 9.5 Carbs, for one! They have been there all week so I am OK that I ate just the one.
