Eating out
 
We went out for Mexican tonight. I had shrimp fajitas with no tortila, a ton of water, and a small vodka and diet coke. My SO had a large plate of arroz con pollo. After eating I have a ton of energy and feel great. He's laying down with a stomach ache and bad gas. I love this WOE and how good I feel on it :)

I even managed to not help my son finish off his chicken enchalada, avoided the chips and salsa, and avoided the soppapilas with sugar and strawberry sauce they bring out after meals :)

I agree with pcubie. You have the will power of a God. Mexican food has alway been one of my reasons for living. Living in Arizona we have a lot of Mexican food places around. I know I'm a weak man so I avoid going to eat at any of those places.
You are an inspiration. Keep it up. :)

Boy I love
 
Mexican food...I eat the salsa off achip but don't eat the chip and same with guacamole I guess you could use a spoon too

Fajitas with no tortillas plus sour cream and guac

taco slad no shell be sure no beans or rice

If you have poor will power ask them not to bring the chips to the table or make the chip eaters at you table keep them over next to them and away from you

same with dessert I just don't let my family order any...I'm mean :wave:

It must of had a lot of sodium. I'm up 2.5 pounds today :P I know it's just water weight if it comes on that fast, still a nasty shock to wake up too. It probably had more to do with the pork rinds dessert I ate late last night as a treat for skipping the desserts at the resteraunt. At least I know I'm still in ketosis, I have the nastiest metal taste in my mouth water just isn't flushing away, blah. Maybe eggs will get rid of it.
