I'm genuinely asking because I haven't figured it out. I'd like to go to dinner at least one a week with friends. I have yet to figure out how to do that and not burn a day's worth of calories with any meal that's not a chicken salad. If this is a lifestyle change and not a "diet" then I need to be able to have a meal a week that's not going to derail my weightloss. I haven't even tried to date doing this yet?! A drink and a half way decent dinner that isn't a plain salad is pretty much my whole day's calories. I guess I'm supposed to balance those overages with working out.... so to go out for dinner and a beer I need to walk/yoga/work out 1-2 hours in order to not go over my day's calories. That seems excessive.
Ugh.
In other news I'm doing pretty good. I've stalled at 211 for a bit, but considering a week ago I was stalled at 213, and before that 215, I've come to expect it. I've got exactly 1 week until I turn 30 and I'd like to be under 210. It's not where I wanted to be, but I'm damn close.
Meal of the week: Mediterranean Inspired Awesomeness!
Raw baby carrots, baba ganoush (store bought, and my FAVE), naan, and I made kababs with onion, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, chicken breast, and lean steak. Lightly seasoned with lemon pepper. The baba ganoush and naan added some pretty significant calories, but overall a pretty healthy and definitely delicious meal that was a welcomed something different.
