Breakfast: Scrambled eggs, pinto (and some black) beans, spinach. I also had a small coffee with a small amount of cream that I forgot to photograph.
Lunch: Lemongrass chicken with extra broccoli instead of rice. There was no way to finish this--it was a huge amount of food. I have a decent portion left for lunch tomorrow.
Dinner: Sashimi with citrus juice, smoked tomato, avocado, hangar steak, mushrooms, asparagus. The sashimi was the perfect thing to get at a sushi restaurant. Delicious, and all the elements were sanctioned! The hangar steak was another story. I ordered it without any potatoes (extra asparagus instead!), all of which seemed right on plan other than the mushrooms that came with it were advertised as having a teriyaki glaze. Then the whole dish was smothered in sugary teriyaki sauce! I ended up scraping off as much as possible in order to eat the dish, but it was still way too sweet. I should have thought to ask them to just do the whole dish over again, but everyone in my party was eating, so I just made-do. Then I cheated during dessert. I had around 6 bites of dessert, and I did have one piece of sushi with rice. Not a terrible amount of cheating, but up to this point I have not cheated at all except on the right day. I will see if I have negative results tomorrow morning. Today was the first day other than cheat day that I have gone out to eat twice in one day. Of course it's much more difficult to stay on the plan when out on the town, but it is possible to do it. If I had been more disciplined about dessert and been more specific about how I wanted my steak dish prepared, I would have been very close to the mark for my dinner out.
