Fell Off the Carb Wagon Briefly

Today I had an all day First Aid course and I was feeling so tired and still a bit light headed in the morning that I had a muffin.  Just a little muffin but it seemed to help give me energy and I felt better afterwards.

At lunch break I made another poor choice and decided to try a nearby Mexican restaurant that I had heard really good things about.  I am totally guessing how many calories the chicken mole burrito had.  It was huge but really didn't have very much meat or rice in it.  It was mostly lettuce.

Did really well at supper though.  I made a new recipe - Cauliflower Hash Browns from the website http://www.dietdoctor.com/

They were very good but a time consuming to make.  If I had a proper food processor it would have been easy but instead I had to hand grate a whole head of cauliflower.  I used about half of it to make 8 hash browns.  The remainder I froze to use in some other cauliflower recipes that I want to try.  I might also use it as a substitute for rice.

For supper I approximately 8 ounces of lean roast beef with 4 cauliflower hash browns drizzled with pan drippings.  I am guessing at how many ounces I had because the battery on my food scale died.  For dessert I had some fresh cherries.

Overall, I was 239 calories over budget.  I just didn't have the time or energy after supper to work out.
