Fancy Lunch

14 Aug

I had a business lunch to attend today. This is my second lunch out this week! I normally always bring my lunch so this throws my whole schedule off! I started with this bread crisp thing and half of the little panini bread shown here. They were both just okay. Boo. For lunch I ordered tortilla soup. I took off a lot of the tortilla strips because they were stale and not worth the cals for stale chips.
I also ordered a bleu cheese salad with some shmancy dressing on the side. I can’t remember now what it was called though. The bleu cheese was some shmancy kind too. The bummer was I just took like 2 or 3 bites of it, but I was too full from the bread and soup so I packed it to go. The waiter kept joking with me and gave me a hard time about not eating the salad. Then, he packed up my salad for me while everyone else he just handed the to-go boxes and put in the little porcelain container with the dressing! He said, “Shhh, it’s okay. You take it Monica.” He kept calling me by my first name because he heard my peers talk to me. It was really funny. Before I left he put the Tapatio bottle in my purse too! Ha.
I ate this chocolate when I got back because I wanted something sweet. And then the stress eating monster showed up…When I got back I was not satisfied from lunch. I don’t know if it was a hunger or stress desire to eat. I had a very stressful day with this “business lunch” and going to court. I do feel my stress eating habit starting to kick in today. I should just drink. One drink and I will be relaxed for a lot less calories. Hmmm. Who votes that I become an alcoholic?

Anyways I ate this super ripe peach and 100 cal pack. I tried to talk myself out of the 100 cal pack since it had HFCS,but I failed. When I am emotionally eating I would eat my own hand. The right one no less! Son of a bitch. Help.

THIS IS YOUR YEAR.

      The striped cookies are good. They are super cute because they are teeny tiny little striped cookies that look just like the big ones BUT – they have high fructose corn syrup in them, so if you try to avoid that here’s a “heads up”!

      I vote for alcohol! LOL Just kidding. 🙂

      I often get the munchies after work lunches like that as well.. I don’t know if it is usually because it’s foods high in cals but lower in nutritional value or just the fact that I hate my job, but I often get the munchies after…

      How are those 100 cal packs of the striped cookies? I wanted to buy them the other day but I was nervous.
