Yeah- the fast officially ended yesterday with communion... But since Kelly & I were driving back from Nashville - it actually ended about the same time, but instead of grape juice- it was BBQ sauce from Marys, and the bread was still bread, but there was some pork in there too.... The reason I am calling today day 22 is that we are trying to build better eating into a habit... No chips with my burrito at lunch (actually would have rather eaten tofu than the chicken) and we had patties made with black-eyed peas, peppers, and a tomato relish - by far the best tasting meatless dinner yet. Still no soda, no coffee, or sweet tea... Did eat some french fries saturday night in Nashville at dinner.
Highlights from Nash-vegas:
-Walking around in a pretty cool city... actually could see us living there one day.
-Hatch Show Print... Coolest, most creatively stimulating place that I have ever stumbled upon.
-The Foo Fighters in concert- just a great show. Some obligatory rock star cussing, but a really really good show... Inspiring to me in one of the facets of my day job. Pictures below.
Nashville was a great place to break the fast- great ribs and steak for the food portion... great rock music for the music portion. What will stick? Only time will tell.
The Stats for today:
Breakfast: skipped it - we were out of strawberries, and I am an all or nothing guy.
Lunch: Skinny Burrito from, where else, Barberitos- should have gotten tofu, didnt need the chees.
Snack: peanuts
Dinner: Basmati Rice and Black-eyed pea patties... yummy and satisfying (who am I???)
Weight: 283 - see Outback, Mary's, and River City Brewing Co.
Mood: Anxious to stick with healthy eating and healthy praying
