Ooops! I forgot to post yesterday. I stayed up way too late doing dumb stuff on the computer and then when it was like 1 am, I thought about posting but then thought going to bed was a better idea.
I ate too much the last 2 days. I made baked beans. No, I made AWESOME baked beans. I have several recipes for beans but these are now my favorite.
And I'm not even going to give you the recipe! Ha! Not for a few weeks anyway when I get around to posting it. Let me just say that it had a lot to do with bacon and salsa! Yummers!
Anyways. They were so good that I way over ate. Really over ate. Beans, especially when it involves bacon, are pretty high calorie. They came in at about 350 calories per cup. That's a lot of calories. But not a ton of beans. Oh, it's enough to be full. They are healthy, full of fiber and protein so a cup of beans and a salad would have been perfect.
BUT THEY TASTED SO GOOD!! I just had to have more. And more.
I slept in this morning. Guess what I had for breakfast? Guess what I had for lunch? Yup! Beans!
Seriously, I think I would have had more control if there were a cheesecake in the frig!
Moral of the story. Calories were high, today and yesterday. Not gain 2 lbs. kind of high but the scale certainly isn't going to be showing a loss if this keeps up!! SO - my goal is to have a few super good days to make up for it.
Tomorrow shouldn't be as bad. The beans are gone. :-(
You sure are gonna miss those beans tomorrow. You're gonna wish you hadn't eaten so many and saved just one more portion for tomorrow. ;-)
