VLCD day 25.
All things considered I had a good day yesterday. We decided to celebrate my birthday by going out to see the movie “Brave” (sans popcorn). The movie started at 5:40 but wouldn’t get out until 8-ish so I knew by the end of the movie I’d be starving. So on the way to the movie I ate an apple. This worked and I wasn’t preoccupied with the smell of popcorn during the movie. Good movie. I cried.. and I think we’re going to name our first daughter Merida.
Anyway, after the movie we went by the grocery store to buy some steaks to cook up for dinner. This is where I went slightly off the rails. I ended up getting a pre-packaged bacon-wrapped filet mignon. First off there was probably twice as much meat in that as I should have eaten.. second off it was wrapped in two strips of -bacon!-.. and third off it tasted kind of sweet.. so I think the package contained some kind of marinade.
I ate the whole thing. I knew I probably shouldn’t.. but I did it anyway. So no loss today. But I’m ok with it. I managed to celebrate my birthday without dessert or ice cream. I think ODing on a bit of steak is forgivable.
