This, I believe, would have been the point, in my past dieting attempts, in which I would have thrown in the towel. A long tiring week at our annual meeting had us up early, on our feet all day, and out the door late to find dinner. We had good intentions, going out on day 1 to purchase salad fixins, and they did save a couple of days. But when faced with the choice of fixing a salad on your hotel desk at 11:30 p.m., or getting up at 4:45 to have some extra time...ya pretty much just pass on the salad.
Our other choices were eggs boiled until they'd bounce, and the guts out of a plate of 3-inch sandwiches. Yes, I ate all of that too, but at the end of the day, I wanted something hot and filling. And alcoholic.
So, I didn't go balls-out gonzo, but by week's end, I didn't much care about the diet.
I gained 3 pounds.
What to do, then, but put it into the South Beach app, and head to Aldi to stock up on this week's veggies.
For dinner tonight, sauteed squid on cauliflower rice.
It was delicious.
