Today I realized that weekends are hard. I was out of the house all day, so that meant all of my meals were not prepared at home, where I know what I'm eating and how many calories are in my meals. I had a pretty large brunch at a local diner. I ordered a vegetable egg omelet that came out with GOBS of cheese and TONS of hash browns and toast with LOADS of butter. It was a gooey mess that I couldn't resist. I thought I was ordering the healthiest option on the menu but I was wrong. I don't have a lot of self control and ate the entire omelet, half of the hash browns, and avoided the toast. I felt sick. What I learned from this experience is next time, order regular old eggs and maybe fruit instead of the gross omelet made with half a dozen eggs and an entire wedge of cheese.
The rest of the day wasn't terrific. I snacked a little too much on god knows what and then sat down to a microwaved dinner. I learned I do a lot better when I prepare my own meals, but eating at home ALL the time is not realistic so I'm going to have to learn to make better choices when eating out.
