Day Ninety - Confessions of a French Fry Addict
So I'm exhausted. Out of the past twenty-eight hours, I've driven nine. I know that sounds a little crazy, but it was well worth it. I got to have breakfast with my brother, so that was an added bonus! My meeting today went well and I'm glad the stress is off now. The worst is that I have a cold coming on. So in the spirit of not feeling very well at all, I'm going to fill you in on my success I had while traveling.
Being that I was on the road so much I was forced to eat three meals out, which would be terrible normally. It really wasn't bad. I have become used to eating better options, and have avoided eating fast food for long enough that the temptations of old didn't even pop up. I have always heard people talk about In-N-Out burger. I knew there was one on my way back from Dallas, so I decided to swing through and see if it lived up to the hype. I ordered a burger and a water. I was on the phone with Bekah while going through the drive-thru, and she heard me place my order. She commented that it was a huge deal that I didn't order fries. I guess she is right. It really is a sign of the life change I have made. I mean, I had a serious problem when it came to fries. I'd order multiple orders of fries at restaurants. If the place had two different types of fries (like Backyard Burger... I mean come on who can decide between their seasoned or their waffle fries), I would order both types. Confessions of a real life french fry addict, right? The point is I'm different now. I can go through a trip and multiple fast food joints and not binge. Roast beef at Arby's, Egg white grill at Chick-fil-A, and a cheese burger at In-N-Out. These are all part of the change as I'm losing my butter half.
Another day down. I am grateful that I could work out when I got home, even if it was only thirty minutes due to my cold.
