The weekend came and went and so did my eating and drinking lol.

OK so I was not bad as usual. I have been looking at it like this. If I can eat really clean during the week and do my Insanity Workouts then slipping a bit on the weekend is OK. The one thing I am learning about my eating habits is MODERATION!!!

So here is how the weekend went and how it could have went.

Friday Night – Well Friday night is always Pizza night. So usually its 4 slices and 2 beers, then ice cream at this great local place.  This time I ordered some Fish and Broccoli and had one slice of pizza and one beer. We did get ice cream, but instead of my Large or Medium I got a small.

Saturday – Typically its the snacking during the day around the house that gets me. Lots of useless carb snacking. I make sure I have good snacks around. Nuts, raisins, bananas , apples etc… I usually eat some tuna fish and avocado for lunch.  Usually we go out on sat night for dinner or have people over. We had people over this time. I had about 3 beers which I guess is average for me, but no ice cream that night lol. As for dinner where I would normally order some greasy fatty meal, I ordered a nice grill chick sandwich so that was a good compromise.

Sunday – Usually my breakfasts is always a nice healthy one and we usually do lunch out on Sunday and that is where I normally get some taylor ham sandwich with fries or something similar. This time I did a buffalo chicken wrap, but with a side a veggies. Sure not the greatest choice, but at least I did not go nuts with tons of fries. For dinner we typically do burgers so we did and I fried up some veggies on the grill as well. I normally eat two burgers which I did, but this time I only had one bun so that helps a bit.

So there you have it. Not super duper healthy eating, but decent eating with compromise. I would venture to guess if I had eating what I normally would have, there could have been an extra 1000 calories in there easily. Now that adds up!

Ok off to do my Pure Cardio workout!

A lot of my posts lately have been about eating… or more about what not to eat. One of the hardest things is finding good toppings since most dressings are milked base and other condiments are full of high fructose corn syrup and all that fun stuff. So what about hot sauce? Well like anything you need to make sure the ingredients are the best you can find. That is why I love Benito’s Hot Sauce!!

I have known Ole Benito for awhile now and have been using his hot sauces for years. My favorites? Old Bricktucky and Benito’s Original Naranja. This stuff will rock your world. Trust me. Try the Old Bricktucky on your pizza “did I say pizza ” and toss some Naranja on your eggs and you will be a happy person!

The great thing about Benito’s Hot Sauces is that he uses organic ingredients for all the hot sauces.  This is what we want because we know there are no filler ingredients and hidden processed sugars we have to worry about.

Remember eating healthy is not that hard you just need to have foods readily available and know what foods is half the battle.  If you have any hot sauce favorites or healthy condiment alternatives let us know!
