    Ended up making beef ravioli in a bacon rose sauce, with homemade garlic and cheese pizza bread and far too much wine.

    PS I assume the "cheat" element implies that it's food that isn't logged? So again that's not the case here as I logged everything and it came to about 1000 cals, but it was all accounted for as we went for a lovely 7 mile cross country hike earlier in the day.

    No, I logged it. By cheat I meant that I didn't care that I went over budget. I feel like I gotta do that once every few weeks

    We waited and went out tonight. Went to Pappadeaux and had:

    Bread and butter

    Crispy fried alligator with creole sauce (appetizer)

    "The Papadeaux Platter"
    Fried: shrimp, crawfish, catfish, stuffed shrimp, stuffed crab, crab cake, French fries

    NY style cheesecake for dessert

    (Didn't come close to finishing the platter. I ate way more of the alligator than she did and we split the cheesecake but couldn't finish it between the two of us)

    AAh i love pappadeaux's.

    What part of Texas are you in? Austinite here

    Mine turned into food poisoning so yay! I'm down 4 pounds after the weekend. Too bad my goal is building muscle right now not weight loss -_-

    Actually, we're in the Cincinnati area. Surprisingly, they have a location all the way up here.

    This was dessert. I'm paying for it now!

    Actually stayed really low until dessert.

    Dinner was Thai-marinated shrimp over steamed rice with a side of snap peas. Around 250 cals since I didn't take more than a tsp of sauce. It was really tasty, definitely something to make again.

    Dessert was a piece of homemade lemon meringue pie.

    A slice of bread, a salad drowned in dressing with mangoes and peppers, five crab ravioli in lobster cream sauce and then a variety of desserts including a crepe and two cinnamon buns. Oh, and can't forget the bottle of wine. I started my day by running two miles to prepare, but most definitely still splurged.

    so the boyfriend and I had our actual valentine's day celebration yesterday, went out to dinner at a Thai place with drinks and appies and the whole thing, and got frosties from wendy's for dessert after a few games of pool. luckily I've been not eating much lately due to being pretty depressed so I didn't have breakfast or lunch and ended up only going over by about 200 calories this time. woo lol
