Yesterday I had a great day, workout-wise and eating-wise. Mid-day Wednesday was gloriously sunny and crisp so I took the opportunity at my lunch hour to go out and run. It was fantastic. Plus, I'm still sore from my work-out the day before. In that sense, I feel really good.
After work yesterday, in an effort to stay away as long as possible while my man hosted the fellas for poker night, I went out with some folks to belltown for a light dinner... and drinks. The whole evening I thought to myself, "edamame, curried cauliflower, and sushi aren't so bad but these cocktails are gonna get me!"
Even with that in mind, I enjoyed three gin and ginger ales during the course of the evening. They were fantastic. When I 'fessed up to all of last night's indulgences on the Daily Plate this morning, I noticed I was 600 calories over my recommended intake - about 3 gin and ginger ales, I'd say. I knew it.
This is just further confirmation that I need to cut down those cocktails that go down so easily and stick to wine, which is under 100 calories a glass and would have cut the impact of my "oops" in half.
