We Cheated

Yes, my brother and I cheated on our diet last night. Yesterday afternoon, we had maintenance over to fix a few things in our apartment and it took longer than anticipated for them to complete the work. My brother had taken meat out of the freezer which would have taken 3-4 hours to cook.
Maintenance didn't leave until 4:30 so there wasn't time to cook dinner and we didn't have anything else to eat. We both broke down and ordered popcorn shrimp from Red Lobster. It wasn't a good choice as the shrimp was breaded and fried. I will say that it was delicious and worth the cheat. I am just feeling guilty this morning.
I'm back on my diet today. Hopefully I can get in extra steps today that will help a little with the cheating. I don't have a lot planned today except cleaning my bedroom and bathroom. I've received all my charms now so I can figure out what kind of bracelets I'm going to make.
So, what will you be having for dinner tonight? Anything special planned for today? If you are going out tonight, please be safe and I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Hubby made tuna salad as I was very tired and did not want anything else we had. We had some home made butternut squash soup for lunch.

Unfortunately, I know how that goes. I had the other half of a sofritas burrito from Chipolte..not exactly diet food either..but at least it was vegetarian.

I'm not sure what I'm going to have for dinner, I spent the whole day outside, the rain didn't bother me

@LowRiderX If it had been me, I would have played in the rain a little. I used to do that when I was a kid.

I still don`t know what to prepare for dinner. I`ll see later. Maybe salad or something to do with rice it depends on my husbands request as he`s the boss when it comes to what to eat for the day and I will just be the chef

Diet really takes a lot of discipline.

It's OK to cheat once and a while. I'm going to have lentil soup for my main meal. Nothing special today. Our little housekeeper should be here this afternoon after a 10-week hiatus. Have a great weekend.

@DocAndersen I wish dieting wasn't so hard. It's so easy to put on weight and so hard to take off.

I'd love popcorn shrimp, that sounds delicious! We had fried catfish, potato salad, and cole slaw.

@kobesbuddy I bet it was! Unless I am dieting, I will always order fried catfish if it's on the menu.

We all need such cheat days to pamper ourselves. I am glad that you both enjoyed that. So have you finally decided on the bracelet or already made one??
