Well today was the big dance competition day. We were away from home for over 15 hours, we relied on the foods I brought from home and maintained extra willpower to stay away from those giant cookies and maui wowi smoothies they were selling at the concession stand! There were a couple of changes in the lunch and dinner plans today, but we made it work and stuck as close as we could to the plan. Although it was a crazy busy day, we got through it and I'm proud of me and my husband. It's been a long time since we haven't binged on a Saturday evening.

Notes on Food:
Eggs and peppers = yum! I used the Target Archer Farms brand frozen red, green and yellow peppers, sauteed them in olive oil for a few minutes then added in the scrambled egg and sprinkled with sea salt - delicious! I'm not looking forward to going back to only egg whites on Wednesday - loving the whole egg right now!
Yes, we went to Chipotle! I had a salad with no cheese - it was flavorful, because its Chipotle, but I did miss the cheese a little bit. We can have healthy fats today, so I debated on getting guac, but figured the chicken was probably prepared with some sort of fat, so I was getting enough of it in the chicken and opted for just that instead.
Dinner - we went to Jensen's Cafe (near the event center) to eat and kill time before awards. They had a an egg white omelet that sounded good, but I went for the steak and shrimp (my husband ate part of my steak). I had salad with Italian vinaigrette, however it seemed like it was cream-based, instead of oil based, so I only ate a tad - maybe just a teaspoon. The meal also came with a veggie medley and a dinner roll - the roll went to my carb loving daughter! I will say, that I need to do a better job of asking the waitress questions about the food and how they prepare it - I should have asked about the dressing prior to selecting it, instead of assuming.
Also, I should have ate a snack since I was up until 11, but did not - oops!
Preparation:
I prepped the veggies and nuts a couple of days ago, so those were easy to grab and through into the cooler. I put together some containers of hummus and blueberries in the morning along with several bottles and a pitcher full of water. Between my husband and I, we need to drink at least 200 oz of water and figured why have to go up to the concession stand to buy water? Avoid temptation and bring as much as I could with.
