3.5 miles walked today, part of it with DH! He took doggies earlier and then did a bit of my walk with me.
We've opted to not do dinner out tonight with a large group going to an Irish pub/restaurant. There are only a few possibilities on the menu for me, not a whole lot. Plus, it's more expensive than it's worth, it's in a touristy area that's always seriously overcrowded on a Saturday night at dinner time in summer, there are problems finding parking, etc. All in all, not really worth it since we're both ambivalent about going anyway. We've got leftover grilled steaks that came out great last night, so we'll enjoy better food and have fewer headaches just staying home.
It's funny how my ideas about food have changed in this last year. I feel I have a limited number of calories/carbs to consume, so they'd better be excellent!! And, while I understand that restaurants have to charge appropriate prices for the business to make money, I also feel that I'd better have a great experience for the money I spend - and that includes the restaurant's atmosphere, service, parking, difficulty and time getting there, "required" gratuities, and any parking fees or tolls. If there are too many hassles or mediocrity in food or service, well, that may just tip the scales to me preferring to eat at home. Mediocrity won't cut it.

Sandy - Hope your evening at home is going well. Funny, I used to jump at the chance to eat out. Now, I almost dread it - even when you think you are eating on plan, you are at their mercy. Plus my stomach has shrunk so I don't get as much value for my money (not everything tastes good the next day from one of those take-home boxes).

I have to agree with you on that Sandy, sometimes its not worth the
hassle of even getting in the car to go out..And the food is not as
good tasting as it used to be..Too salty, greasy or just plain not cooked right..Even though I hate to cook I would rather have my salad
or my hamburger etc. I am glad my tasted buds have changed as well
have a wonderful weekend...Bren

Buffy...well the evening at home proved to be a bit more challenging. DH has been treating himself ever since he passed his PT test and 1 thing left on his "to eat" list was......wait for it......pizza! He DID order from my 2nd favorite place (not my favorite place) so that was a bit of a help. And, he ate part of it outdoors on the patio; I think that was to be kind to me so I didn't see it any more than I had to. I thought about indulging, since I haven't had any since the Super Bowl, but decided I wasn't really ready to allow that indiscretion, seeing as I've been not-so-patiently awaiting this next pound to drop. Other than that, it was a good evening and I hope yours was too.

You're so right Bren - at least we know what's in the food we prepare! I'll put my grilled steaks up against the best any restaurant has to offer! And, if we have to be stressed on the way there and back and it's so loud in the restaurant you can't hear yourself think, well, then, what's the point? Hope your huby didn't rope you into doing anything too stressful today....have a restful Sunday.

Sandy, So glad to hear you passed the pizza test. Actually, I am very impressed, since I am not sure I would have done as well. I think I can, but IRL, I will be honest enough to admit, I am not sure. For eating out, I have gotten to not enjoy it very much at all. I was thinking it was because I am getting old & crabby - lol! But, in reality, it is because I like our home cooked food much better. It is better for me, tastes better, way less expensive, I could go on. I much rather entertain at home! Hey, we should have a steak grilling contest...ummm yummy! Wow, what a feast. Yeah, I think maybe steaks tonight!

Dar, it helps that the pizza he ordered had my heart just pounding overnight the last time I had it, well over a year ago (SB pizza was from my fave place, not this place). Poor DH gained 5 lbs. overnight from yesterday's little indiscretion! And, he's facing the leftover portion of that pizza today. So, all in all, I'm quite happy I stayed away; almost makes it easier to face doing without it the next time (IF there is a next time...LOL!).
