Day 26 - September 9, 2011

I had a Slimfast Meal Bar for breakfast and a Fiber Plus bar for a mid-morning snack.  I also drank 20 oz. of water by the time I finished my snack.  For lunch I had a Slimfast Meal bar, some grapes and a Skinny Cow milk chocolate heavenly crisp.  Before I left work my husband texted me and said his parents wanted to take us out to dinner.  So after I got off work they picked us up and we went to a place called Ali's Thai Kitchen. I used to not really like Thai food at all, but I've become more open with trying new foods and have really grown to like Thai food.  My father-in-law likes to order food "family style", so we ordered 2 appetizers (golden fried shrimp and spring rolls) and 3 entrees (cucumber salad, pad thai and spicy fish) and we all shared them.  It's actually better to order that way with a group because you don't eat as much.  You want to make sure everyone gets some so you tend to take less.  The golden fried shrimp also come with 2 fried broccoli, an onion ring and a fried banana.  I had one fried shrimp and one fried broccoli and I also tried a little piece of the banana just because I had never tried it before.  It was not good, the consistency of it grossed me out.  It was crunchy on the outside and mushy on the inside. Ick!  I also had one spring roll.  Then for dinner I had some of the cucumber salad and pad thai.  I didn't eat any of the spicy fish because it's too spicy for me.  I had never tried the cucumber salad before but it was very good as was the pad thai.  I think this place has the best pad thai.  I could eat it probably 3 times a week and never get sick of it.  After dinner we all went to my husband's cousin's high school football game.  It was 97 degrees when we got there at 7:00pm and it was still sunny.  And of course you squish in between a bunch of people in the bleachers.  It was so gross, you could feel the sweatiness of the people around you.  And there were several people around me that had way too much perfume or cologne on.  I kept smelling different scents, some were good and some not so good, but it was giving me a headache.  And being in a crowd like that just made it feel even hotter.  Near the end it got a little better, it was a little cooler and the people who were sitting in front of me moved so I could stretch out and every once in a while I felt a little breeze.  I realized I like people watching more than paying attention to the game.  Pretty much the whole time I would be watching what all the people were doing.  I would watch when his cousin was in the game and I saw the part where one of the players got hit with the ball because he was running and not paying attention to where the ball was.  That was hilarious! So I ended up sweating for 3 hours straight, I thought maybe my body would think I was working out and I'd lose some weight, LOL.  At the game I drank a red gatorade and my mother-in-law had some snacks so I had a tiny bag of peanut M&Ms.  You know the little bags you get when you go trick-or-treating?  It was one of those.  Once I got home all I wanted to do was lay down.  Which is pretty much what I did.  We got home around 10:00pm and I started watching some YouTube videos and fell asleep.  I would wake up every once in a while, but I was just too tired to get up. I ended up getting up at 2:00am to take off my makeup and brush my teeth, then went back to bed.  Oh I forgot to say that my husband's cousin's team won!  The other team was really bad.
This morning I weighed 237.4, up .2 lbs. from yesterday.  And I didn't workout today, I'm counting my 3 hours of sweating as a workout. =P
