Today is Amy's birthday. I won't tell you how old she is, but sufficient to say she is a mere babe in the woods next to yours truly. Anyhow, she asked to go to Texas Roadhouse for her birthday dinner, with a trip to Graeter's afterward. Me being me, and Texas Roadhouse having the best rib-eye in the world, and Graeter's having the best frozen deserts anywhere, I took her where she wanted to go. Now, normally, I'd pig out, but I planned ahead and I think I did well. Of course, that's until we got to Graeter's. I hadn't planned to have anything, but they had apple cider sorbet, which sounded too good not to try. And it was better than anything I've ever had there. But again, I tried to be good, as you'll see below.
Diet Update
Breakfast 10/19:
South Beach bar
8 oz light yogurt
1 apple
8 oz water
16 oz coffee
Lunch 10/19:
Roast beast (3 oz) and swiss (1 oz) on multigrain bread w/mustard
6 oz salad w/ ~2 tbsp raspberry vinagrette
3 oz mixed veggies
32 oz water
Afternoon Snack 10/19:
3 oz grapes
6 oz mixed veggies
Dinner 10/19 (Texas Roadhouse):
Side salad (~4 oz) w/ bleu cheese dressing on the side
~1/2 cup green beans
~6 oz rib-eye steak (about half of the steak)
~6 oz baked potato w/ butter (about half the potato)
~20 oz water
Dessert (Graeter's):
1/2 scoop apple cider sorbet (I'm guessing ~2 oz?)
You'll notice that I only ate half my steak, half my potato, and half my sorbet. The steak and potato will be lunch or dinner later on, the sorbet had to go bye-bye. BTW, if you live near a Graeter's, try their apple cider sorbet. It's awesome!

Happy Birthday AMY!
The good thing about sorbet is that is has less calories and fat than ice cream.
