I have to summarize a few days because I'm just not willing to sit in front of the computer as often most weekends. I haven't messed up at all but by Sunday morning I found myself craving cheese. I didn't have any but, man, that sounds good right now.
Friday night I ate at
Taco Bueno and had a bean burrito with lettuce, tomato, and guacamole and chips and salsa. Adding the guac made it easier to skip the cheese and it was still quite tasty. Gotta admit that I was impressed.
Saturday dairy never even crossed my mind. Again, at
Matito's, a local Mexican restaurant, for appetizers and drinks with a girlfriend. I opted for a side of guacamole with chips and salsa and THE BEST margarita I've ever had in my life. (The menu said "limit 2 per person" and I completely see why. Whoa!!)
By Sunday I really wanted cheese!! There's nothing better after a late night with adult beverages than to have eggs and a TON of cheese on a warm tortilla. Sigh. I was able to resist though. And then came
Snuffer's. It's a local restaurant to Dallas that's know for it's cheese fries. Awesome french fries smothered in cheese with chives and jalepenos and for the carnivores you can add bacon... and they don't skimp on ANY of the ingredients. I mean, you can hardly see the fries for the cheese. I did great though. Had my favorite veggie burger that comes with fried jalepenos, chipotle sauce, and jack cheese... I, of course, ordered it with no cheese and quickly realized that the cheese is what holds it all together. Oh well, it's a little messier now. And instead of fries I went for onion rings. Still all very delicious just minus the dairy.
Very proud of myself this weekend!! The hard part is on the way though... a business trip this week. It's hard enough to eat on a schedule but even harder to stay healthy so we'll see how it goes.
