My son had a soccer game this morning which meant everyone getting ready and heading out quickly. We had a light breakfast and packed into the van to head off to the game. The game started at 11 and was over by noon. The games are pretty quick seeing as the kids are 6 years old. After the game was over, my son wanted to go to a local restaurant with a food bar. I didn’t really want to go, because the last time the service wasn’t all that good and the food isn’t always the best either. I also didn’t want to go seeing as how well I did last week with my eating and watching my calorie intake. But, everyone was hungry and my will power cracked… and temptation won out. We decided not to go to the first restaurant and instead went to the local Chinese buffet. Then my fat cells rejoiced. Whenever we go to the Chinese buffet, I like to mainly eat the chicken or beef dishes with vegetables but I just can’t resist some of the fried food either. Especially considering there is usually so much of it. One thing I took notice of today is how much grease is on all of the food, vegetable dishes included. My fat cells soaked it all up and said gimme more! I can’t imagine how many calories are in all of those dishes. Guess I will have to do a little less work this coming week and a little more working out and do better with my meals throughout the week. Still, there is nothing quite like the Chinese buffet for a good weekend lunch.
