The Results are in after a weekend away....
As the previous post mentioned,
I went to Soundwave on the weekend.
This weekend was about spousal and parental bonding,
not about my music tastes, so lets just clear that up!! haha
Here is Metallica!
From 7.30 - 11 I was subjected to their screaming screeching confusing music!
But, on a healthy eating front,
its all good!
Although doing a trip away is hard, its hard to find good food in the city!
We are country people, food is easy to find,
but in the built up cities, even pulling in a McDonalds is impossible!!!
Saturday was ok,
I had luch here before i left and took what snacks I had with me.
I thought if worst comes to worst, I can just eat my snacks!
Had a muesli bar for afternoon tea
and then went to the restaurant attached to the motel for tea.
It was Deepka Indian Restaurant!
I thought I would just order veges, all restaurants have veges!
So I looked through the menu to confirm, yes they have veges in their dishes.
The waiter came in and took our order,
Can I have a plate of cooked vegetables please?
No, we dont have vegetables here?
You dont serve vegetables in your retaurant?
No we dont.
But there are vegetables in the dishes?
No, sorry no vegetables.
Ok, can I please order the scotch fillet (I would eat half) and a salad.
Salad consisted of Lettuce and 3 large thick slices of cucumber.
it was pretty yummy actually, the steak was cooked beautifully.
So I ate a small portion with my lettuce and cucumber and all was right with the world
Breakfast on Sunday I had planned to have a yogurt at Maccas.
I asked Stu to stop at a Maccas on the way to the concert.
Nope, didn't stop anywhere!
You couldn't get out of the traffic, no wonder there are so many accidents in Sydney!
We got to Olympic Park at about 12 noon.
Thank goodness I still have a muslie bar left, so I ate that about 11.30 giving up on Yogurt!
So I tried to find something for lunch at the Soundwave Thing.
Lots of fried food, and lollies and things..
I did find some kind of wrap thing.
It had capsicum, and some sort of thin meat with lots of lettuce.
It was a big lettuce weekend for me!
So I had half of one of those.
Drank water...
All good.
Tea time!
There was nothing!
Hunger was really starting to get to me!
Choices were so limited in the arenas.
I chose a chicken and lettuce sandwich - Yum.
More bread and more lettuce.
And then I spotted the Krispy Creams!
Now being a country girl, I have ever only SEEN Krispy Creams 3 times!
So I had to get us all one.
And I admit I also have an ice cream during the day.
It was so hot and sweaty
my shirt was soaked all day from sweat!
I sweated more just standing then I did while working out!!
I walked up a million or so flights of stairs and down again!
All with an injured knee!!!
Walked like a million and a half kilometers around the stadiums!
Then when it was over our car was parked on the 7th floor,
so along with the other 200,000 people finding their car we took the stairs!!!
Jumped on the scales the morning I got home and it was all good!
Jumped on them again this morning and it was even better!!!
Lets see what tomorrow brings.
I think all that exercise saved me from those bad choices!
But its Tuesday now and all is back on track!
I must admit, even for me, I am so proud of my food choices!
I am being very mature and very honest with myself
and I know I can see myself in this for the long haul!
Good on me!
