The day started with Chris trying to convince me to go out to breakfast. And man, do I love me some breakfast out. But I knew that to stay on track, I was going to need to make something at home. So I did a little improved egg bake (155 calories for half). Ingredients were:
Put the chopped items on the bottom of a ramekin sprayed with cooking spray, pour on the eggs, and top with cheese. Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. And I have half for tomorrow. Taa daa!
Then Chris and I went and ran errands, specifically to find a black cardigan to wear to work (me) and black shoes (him). I eventually found the cardigan--plus $100 worth of other stuff we don't really need--at Target. Alas, no such luck for Chris on the shoes.
Lunch was at Nando's Peri Peri while we were out. If you've never been to Nando's, you should go. There's one in Gainesville and another in One Loudoun. I had 1/4 of a chicken - white meat (and didn't eat the skin, less than 300 calories), an ear of corn (90 calories) and a side salad (40 calories).
At any rate, my steak was small (220 calories), I only ate a half cup of the brown tomato rice (128 calories), and a half cup of the kimchi (25 calories), but it was very filling!
Then I did the stationary bike at 12 mph for an hour while watching Fixer Upper (they used lots of shiplap!) so that burned a nice 400-500 calories. I think she is SO beautiful, and they're a very sweet couple. And I do like her decorating style, even if she does use waaaaaay too much shiplap.
Chris and I found an entire Shiplap House in Annapolis this year. Here's what we thought. Note that my hair is on point.
For all of my pedaling, I earned a little post-dinner snack of 2 ounces of port (83 calories), an ounce of Gouda cheese (101 calories), and a half ounce of fair trade dark chocolate with almonds (87 calories).
Total: 1229/1400 calories
13 glasses of water
In conclusion, for keeping it together on a weekend day, we'll give it a Kate, even though she's wearing that hideous belt that I just wish she'd lose. At least it isn't another coat dress.

Dinner was another Blue Apron creation: Chile-Rubbed Steaks with kimchi and tomato rice. The kimchi ended up being more like pickled cabbage (fine, because I like pickled things), and the rice was kind of Italian-y. The individual components were good, but it didn't work as a composed dish.
