Bad weekend, bad

So this weekend was bad when it came to food but we at least did the scorpion flip several times and we've started doing the plank as well. 

Friday night we finally went out for my steak dinner.  But instead of going to a fancy steakhouse we just went to Outback.  We decided to save on some money and go there since we know we enjoy their food as well.  It's a good thing we did too because we still ended up spending close to 80 bucks.  We even split the dinner too. 

We got some chicken wings for the appetizer.  They were pretty good but not what we remembered having there so they must have gotten rid of the those kinds.  It's been quite awhile since we were there last so who knows when they got rid of them.  Then chose to have the 8oz fillet with garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli for the sides.  And I also got 3 grilled shrimp.  So the dinner was good for us.  He got most of the steak, we figured he got 5oz and I got 3oz but that was good since I also got the shrimp.  But then we ruined it all when we got the warm brownie with ice cream on top for desert.  But we split that as well at least.  Nowhere near as good as the desert from Red Lobster which we considered for about 2 minutes going over and getting.  But we decided to be good and not go.  We also had a couple drinks each.  He had long islands and I had something that I can't remember the name of now.  But it had vodka in it and it was nice and sweet.  HEE

Good thing we didn't get the 2nd desert at Red Lobster too since by the time we made it home we both felt satisfied.  If we had gotten our own meals we definitely would've been uncomfortably full.  Although we both agreed that if and when we go there again we'll get our own sides and split the steak still.  And skip the appetizer and desert.  With the bread they serve at the beginning and having our own full amount of sides we'll be just fine.  I still might get the shrimp so that way he still gets a bigger chunk of the steak.

Saturday was really really bad.  We had frozen pizza for lunch/breakfast and then I had an Italian beef and fries for dinner.  Which the dinner wasn't so bad but then we had chocolate cake (I had a huge slice) and chips and several shots.  We had friends over for game night to celebrate my birthday.  He had pizza again but this time it was double dough with pepperoni and bacon - very bad.  I had the tiniest corner piece of it but that was it.

Sunday wasn't any better really.  Although calorie wise I probably just made what I should be eating in a day.  I had a piece of cake for my breakfast, not anywhere near the size of the night before.  Then we went to his nephews birthday party where I had a pretty darn small piece of ice cream cake and by the time we got home it was going on 7pm and that's all I had had all day for food.  He cooked up some ground beef to make tacos for himself and I had couple hot dogs and potato chips.  So the food wasn't the greatest but at least it wasn't a ton of calories the way Saturday was.

And every day we did some flips and started doing the plank on Saturday.  Yesterday I had a migraine bad enough that I stayed home from work and he still made me do the plank a couple times.  But I refused to do the flip, was in too much pain for that.  Was able to stay up for 43 seconds the first time and 30 the second.

My back is paying for it today.  But at least it's a good workout pain.  But my head still hurts too so that's not good.  May skip the plank this evening and only do a couple flips.  We shall see.
