so i went away to a friend's country house this weekend. obviously it was really lovely and i was super grateful to him for having me out but i have to tell you, i ate like shit.
the whole drive out he had been telling me about this Martha Stewart pasta dish he's been making recently involving pasta, shaved parmesan, poached eggs and brown butter. he was really looking forward to making it for me so i decided to be a good house guest and let him. i tried to modify it saying things like "i only need one egg" and "you can actually leave the brown butter off of mine" but he wasn't having it so 15 points later (i only get 32 in a day), there i was. yes, it was delicious.
the next day i was making dinner so i was able to make something i felt comfortable eating but not without having grilled cheeses for lunch first.
the day after it was spaghetti with meat sauce for lunch and cheeseburgers for dinner and long story short, if i break even on the scale this weekend i'll be happy.
i didn't want to put them out by asking for special food so i though i'd just try and make myself some supplemental things but went i looked around, there wasn't anything else to be had.
i guess next time i could say "i'm trying to be more mindful about what i eat these days" and bring food with me but frankly, i find that kind of embarrassing.
i did my best with portion control, and i don't feel TOO terrible about what i ate because it was all made with really high quality ingredients, but the fact remains that all of my meals for 2 and a half days were like once a week splurge meals.
i guess all i can do at this point is work out extra hard this week and move on but boy howdy do i feel like crap right now.
