Major blogger fail today 
I broke my memory card after taking pictures of my lunch, snack and fun times. Busted. Literally.
Now I need to get a new memory card tomorrow, but all the pics from today are lost. This is the second memory card I’ve broken this year too! This is why I can’t have nice things…
So today we have to play “pretend” with my recap.
Luckily, we don’t have to pretend it was a gorgeous day, because it totally was 
Because of the great weather (and desire to avoid house cleaning at all costs), I headed to my mom’s to visit my little brother Matt…
and take Bailey and Roxy on a walk.
They love walks, almost as much as I do!
Before leaving for the visit I had an amazing salmon wrap. I shared the salmon with Vegas because he’s still looking pretty tragic from his fight. Hopefully, he won’t have a bald shoulder forever!
On the way home from my mom’s I stopped at a local Mexican place for the best burritos around! I always stop here on the way home and bring Ben a burrito. They don’t really have anything very healthy so I usually skip it.
Today I decided to live my damn life and ordered a taco salad. 
Unfortunately this is probably the one thing on the menu that actually tastes better homemade or even made by Chipotle. At least the guac was plentiful, but I think I make better salads at home.
Someone asked if I had lost any weight since Lent started ( I gave up sweets). First off, that is not the reason I gave them up, and I’d be disappointed if that was the case because – No, I haven’t.
I think giving up sweets has made me think about them more (probably my binge history waking up because of this all or nothing mentality)! I have still been having dessert at night, but instead of a Vitatop I have a Bagel Thin with fancy PB or something. This ends up being more calories and is doing me a disservice. Now that I realize that I can reign it in a bit!
Ben and I are thinking about signing Vegas’ cone…
What do you think?
That’s another reason I hate eating out. Too often I try to be healthy and then realize that I could make the food waaay better at home. That stinks about the memory card, I can’t own nice things either 😉
Bummer on the memory card!! How frustrating!
I gave up sweet for a month in January, and I found that I filled that void of sweets with other food and I think I actually gained weight because of it. It is hard when you give something up completely!
what a bummer! that blue sky is absolutely gorgeous.
Sign the cone! Do it!
BTW that comic totally made my morning.
Sign the cone! My hubby and I would do it if we our cats had a cone!
I gave up sweets for Lent last year and did the same thing – alternative “dessert” like tons of dried (sugar added) fruit, lots of PB, etc. I ate a lot more trying to satisfy my sweet tooth with non-sweets.
Yeah, I totally think I’m eating more to satisfy the craving!
Aw, I can’t believe people assume you would give up sweets for lent to loose weight. That is so anticlimactic!
If I was trying to loose weight, I wouldn’t choose to do it out of a dishonor on a religious occasion. I hate that people see lent as that.
bought salads are sometimes just a little too blah & i feel like i could have done better at home. if a salad has ingredients i don’t cook with or use, i’ll totally get it though.
laziness FTW!
Sorry to hear about your memory card – it sucks.
The Taco salad looks delicious – pity it wasn’t.
i like it foreboding My Cone | follow ingest Repeat now im your rss reader
I am always amazed that my mother–sucessfuly–gives up sweets for lent every year. I think she only survives by eating chocolate graham crackers. She always says, “it’s not a cookie–the serving says one cracker!!”
Your mom is a genius. I’m getting those crackers tomorrow!
