Tribulations of Ice Cream

Well, I bought ice cream over the weekend. Oops. I have today off from work. I told myself I was NOT going to touch the ice cream all day. What did I eat first thing this morning? Too small bowls of the stuff. Not a good start to the day.

Recapping of the weekend:

Saturday started out great. I had a green smoothie which consisted of spinach, frozen strawberries and mango. The husband and I went to the gym where I completed week 3 of Couch to 5K.

I had maybe about 6 flax chips from Trader Joe's before we headed off to a party in the park in the afternoon. At the park I had a bowl of fruit. Too bad there was salt or something on the fruit. These people just can't eat plain food. Then I had some rice, some sort of meat kabob, oily vegetables, chicken curry and dal with egg in it. I really didn't have that much food. I thought I was going to make it through the day without having any pop, but I got nervous and just poured myself a glass of 7up. It gave me a headache almost immediately. Then I had a headache in the morning the next day and I have a headache this morning. I really have to figure out what gives me headaches in the morning.

Dinner on Saturday night was Combo meal #5 from Taco Bell, which is Nachos BellGrande, a Supreme soft taco and a giant glass of drink. I had lemonade. This meal is well over 1000 calories. To top it off I had two small bowls of ice cream. Go me!!

Sunday morning, I'm sure I had several bites of ice cream in the morning. I made myself and the husband a pepper, onion and cheese omelet. I had a slice of peanut butter toast with mine. We went on a one hour bike ride in the hill country of Edina and looked at really beautiful houses.

For lunch, all I had was one...or was it two? little pieces of southwestern Bellatoria pizza. Not recommended. I also had maybe one tiny pita pocket filled with hummus, grated carrot and a spinach leaf.

For a snack I had two little pieces of cheese cake and then chicken curry, fish curry and vegetables. Totally failed before going to bed though. I had another little piece of cheese cake and lots of ice cream while watching the Tudors.

I'll see how the rest of the day goes...
