Title: Help Schade cheat on her diet
Post by: Chris_ on May 10, 2008, 05:28:38 PM: Going out to eat Italian tonight and while I have been digging on my muffin top that I grew over the winter, I am having second thoughts about what I should eat tonight.

Should I...

1. .....gorge on rich alfredo pasta and lots of bread?
2. .....drink lots of alcohol?
3. .....have tiramisu for dessert?
4. .....only eat a salad with low fat vinaigrette dressing and a drink a tall glass of ice water?

Remember my mantra is we only pass through this world but once, may as well live it up, eh?

You're just as lovely at 225 as you are at 105.

Acquiesce to a Caesar salad w/ Romain lettuce.....

Low fat dressing is a qualifier.

Thank you Frank, you always say the right thing.

If I were 225, I would look like that royal judge on the scooter. :o

If you weren't patronizing Italian I would encourage you to go Chilean or Argentine.

I would go with a glass of blush.

On second thought, go white.

A glass of Pinot should suffice.

You could do all four and no man on this board would think you were any less hot.

Post by: Mr Mannn on May 10, 2008, 06:39:06 PM: You are going out. Have fun, enjoy yourself, and do not worry about what you eat.
Tomorrow you can pay for it by making a trip to the store and eating only veggies.

Seriously, a good veggie salad makes a great dinner.
Broccoli, cauliflower, bean sprouts, cherry tomatoes, peppers etc, on a bed of either alfalfa or fresh spinach leaves, and the salad dressing of your choice (ranch for me).

If you think you will still be hungry, add a baked potato on the side.
Serve with unsweetened iced tea.

Its not so bad. This way you can live it up today and not suffer tomorrow.

That sounds really good, Mr Mann! I may have to try that tomorrow.

Personally, I gorged myself on Mexican food this evening, so I strongly encourage Schadie to join Jty and me in the circle of gluttony.

Don't you know that wine, like dark chocolate is healthy for you now? :-*

Speaking of baked potatoes, the small potatoes bake too. A baked potato does not have to be the size of your head.

(I thought I'd pass this along because I bake small potatoes for my wife and myself and they are enough to eat. I am appalled when eating out and the potato comes the size of an asteroid. Then I find out that is what people expect.)

Shadie - eat a snack before you go so you aren't starving. Avoid the bread basket, and order what you want. When it arrives, cut it in half and only eat one portion.

Post by: phillygirl on May 11, 2008, 12:55:27 PM: I cheated on mine as well. Hiked 10 miles. Then it was time for the reward. I was willing to be reasonable...just ordering soup and a veggie salad with grilled chicken, as penance for the beers I was craving. Unfortunately, my companion was going full out, getting the potato/bacon/cheese soup; stuffed portabello mushroom with crab (that was actually a reasonable choice) and french fries loaded with cheese and bacon. So, in light of the cheese fries I skipped the soup. The salad was unbelievably delicious (I know I'm on a diet when I rave about a salad). The beers (2 1/2) were even better. But the dairy queen run at 8:00 topped it off.

So, it's a wasted weekend diet wise (god if I would skip the rewards after my hikes I'd never have to worry about this!). Back to the 2 week induction...and so it goes.

Bruschetta is always worth it, Schade. Did you at least get some pasta and some wine as well?
Title: Re: Help Schade cheat on her diet
Post by: Chris_ on May 11, 2008, 01:34:50 PM: I realized I never even confessed to the meal I had on Friday night.... it was classic Irish fare, a bowl of sauerkraut and sausage soup, a sampling of bangers and mash, a tall guinness stout (with a very nice shamrock imprint), and a forkful of cheesecake with Baileys Cream drizzled over it. :evillaugh:

Last night, they were passing out samples of their house Rossa wine. Not impressed. I stuck to Summit Pale Ale (local microbrew) to accompany my soup and salad. No dessert, but I did have an Irish coffee as a night cap.

All in all, a complete failure to resist temptation. I believe they call it.... gluttony. :evillaugh:
