Team Portion Control

I’m going to skip breakfast because I really couldn’t bring myself to take another picture of an English muffin with a banana. (So, when I make my own food, you get more boring posts, but I save more money. Sorry.)

After being successful bringing my lunch for four days in a row, I decided it was time for takeout and went to Qdoba. I saw a few weeks ago that they have a Grab 2 promotion—like a soup/sandwich combo, but with Mexican food. WIN.

I got two soft chicken tacos (does ANYONE really like hard tacos? Anyone? Bueller?) and their Mexican gumbo. I got a little bit of both things that I wanted, and so I was satisfied.

I think he wants a taco, too.

A Quiet Week

If this were a normal week, I would have already completed a boot camp, had a Junior League meeting and gone to a blog event. But since I’m sick, I’ve come home every night after work and spent it on the couch with Mr. Bailey. I guess I needed it.

I’m still going strong on eating in this week. I almost ordered takeout when I got home, but remembered I had a few more meatballs left in my fridge.

I also haven’t run or exercised since Sunday. While I just have a bad cold, and I probably could work out, I’ve chosen not to, so that I can conserve energy and hopefully feel better faster. (And, um, I don’t mind taking a few days off!)

The one thing I realized this week: I am going to do everything in my power to become  a morning exerciser. I watch Ashley and Sara tweet about their morning workouts, and I wonder why I don’t do that. This week has been really nice having extra time after work since I haven’t been working out. I’m going to try the morning/lunch workouts again next week.

And yes, I’ll take some cheese with this whine.
