Time to combat this!

Ok....so last night we went to a five star restaurant courtesy of Eddie's parents. It was their Christmas present to us and we had decided to use it for Valentine's Day.

The food was amazing!
Pre 1st course: cauliflower soup with oysters
1st course: Duck au confeit
2nd course: Salmon with clam sauce
3rd course: Scallops with orange sauce
4 course: Hot chocolate souffle

With fresh bread of course!

They brought a box of chocolate covered strawberries and graham crackers instead of mints with the check. I wish they would of told me this before I ordered the crappy souffle.

So I am sure that none of this was on my diet. I went with the seafood mostly because it was broiled. They had more fattening options (Fried, cream based sauces, etc.). The cake was disappointing and not worth the money and I actually didn't even finish it. At the end of the night I was really quite proud of my choices.

So now I am straight and narrow on the life change. I didn't make it out to the gym yesterday but I went this morning for an hour and I just got back from another hour. The gym is right down the street in the strip mall on the corner. We got a great deal for 790 for both of us for 2 years if we signed up when it opened. It ends August this year so I am going to think of important factors in choosing the next one. Anyways, I decided to walk and it really isn't so bad. It was 68 and gorgeous today =) I feel so much better.
