Ugh. So easy to make a bad choice.

I met an old friend today for lunch. We met at a convenient place, and the options were Cosi and Qdoba. (Apparently Upper Crust pizza was also an option, but I didn't see it until after Qdoba.)

Pressure to order quickly, I tried to decide what to get. I decided I'd do something with meat, and that would be my protein for the day. I decided that a grilled quesadilla sounded like I could do it in a simple way. I could get cheese but half of what they'd normally use. I wouldn't get anything extra, other than salsa. And I wouldn't eat the whole thing. And I did all that.

Then I came back and looked up the nutritional info on what I ate. Are you kidding me?????

Now, I didn't eat the whole thing, so I can cut some of the details out of it, but suffice it to say I probably ate more saturated fat in one day than I normally do in a few weeks combined. In terms of points, I didn't go over for my day, but I also didn't have much of a dinner... Really, the fat was out of control, though. I can't imagine what other people eat in a lunch at Qdoba on a given day.

I'm glad I didn't indulge and eat the whole thing, and it's a great reminder that, when I leave myself open to meals without planning and forethought, I can get in trouble.

Good thing I went to Zumba tonight! I'll recover from this, and it won't get in my way, but it's a reminder that it's easy to lose sight of the hard work if you're not careful.

Thanks for reading!
