MEXICAN!! nightmare...but so good!

I ordered the following:

1) Taco salad (no cheese, light guac, no sour cream, no shell and pinto beans no refried beans)

2) 8 chips with salsa

3) a couple bites of my friends fried ice cream :devil: hehe

4) 20oz glass of water

    You did it!!! although the chips could be avoided if fried, I think you did very well. Drink a lot of water helps so much!!! keep it up

    Your food diary for today says you're under your calories. :drinker: Great job! All those veggies are good for you too! :bigsmile: The beans and corn salsa are the healthy parts of mexican foods! :glasses:

    That sounds fine, but I think the ideal Mexican food dish would be chicken/shrimp fajitas cooked with no butter, ask for corn or whole wheat tortillas or limit yourself to one flour tortilla. Chicken breast and sauteed peppers and onions? YUM! :love:
