Dinner

in Maine Nesties

DH is taking me out to a fancy dinner tonight.  He spends A LOT of time reffing hockey in the winter and I think this is his way of appeasing me.

It is going to TOTALLY ruin my diet for the week.  I just felt like I needed to be accountable to somebody.

Do I try to order the healthiest thing on the menu, keeping in mind that there isn't much healthy on the menu?  Or do I say F it and get what I really want?

    F it for tonight!  Because

    1) it's a rare occasion

    2) you've been very good so far

    3) it's early days in the diet and you have time to make up for it and you will!

    Drool. I love Fuel!

    I think the Salmon looks like a healthy option if that's something you like. Otherwise, enjoy your night, your meal and your time with your husband! The scallops look devine too... ugh, I want to go.

    I would totally be in the "Eff it!" mindset at a place like that- the food looks amazing! Since they're not things that one would normally make at home, the temptation is a one time occurance, and you can always make up for it later! Wink

    i vote "eff it" as well...places that like usually have smaller portions anyway...and it's only one night...

    enjoy...the menu looks amazing!

    The salmon or the chicken seem like good options.  But I would get whatever you really want.  One meal is not going to ruin everything.  Enjoy!

    F it, and get wine and dessert, too!  You can make up for it during the rest of the week, but life is for living...you need to enjoy the special occasions to their fullest.

    I love you gals!

    I really indulged!  I had the spinach, pear, walnut and blue cheese salad, the scallops with mushroom risotto, a "big apple" martini and a cappuccino.

    Everything was super yummy and I have leftovers!

    that all sounds amazing...I was going to suggest getting a salad and then taking half your entree home, but it seems like it worked out that way anyway :)

    once we've tackled all the restaurants in portland, I will definitely be making a trip to lewiston, yum
