I’ll Go With #70

It’s so funny how I like to try and plan my day, sometimes I just gotta be flexible not matter how much I want to control it :).

Tonight the plan was to go eat some yummy Thai food with Hubby for our “Wednesday Night Out”which happened, but I had to give my BFF’s a rain check for scrapbooking tonight due to some not so fun tasks for Athletic Director job.

At dinner I used some tips that I learned from TBL last night while ordering out. I looked for the things on the menu that were either grilled, steamed, poached, or baked. I found only one # 70, Teriyaki Chicken with steamed veggies and the sauce on the side.

But of course we had to split a bowl of Tom Kah Kai Soup (spelling?).

They gave me SOOO much more chicken then I normally get with my normal Yellow Curry. The veggies were WEAK, broccoli and cabbage.

I also got brown sticky rice on the side.

I have some yummy leftovers, the teriyaki chicken was good but I missed my CURRY! I know how to choose healthy when eating out, it’s just nice to be reminded sometimes.

When I got home I got right to business and got most of my check list done!! I have a few more things to to take care of, but I am going to call it a night and do some SHRED in the morning!!

It's good to know how to order healthily while out, but sometimes eating out is such a treat, it's okay to get what we REALLY want! But your chicken still sounds good!

Yeah, I feel when ordering out, it's best to go with your gut (literally!). It's good to be mindful and keep things in health check; however, I don't go out often, and when I do, I want to enjoy my meal. I don't think I could ever order something that I know I wouldnt enjoy just because it was the healthiest thing on the menu. If I was out for that, I would have just stayed home and cooked. :)

Thai food is always good though, so thankfully your dish wasn't a total loss!

Have a great day Bobbi!

It is always tough to order something healthy when eating out. Restaurants always make something that seems healthy terrible for you!

Mmm, I love Tom Khai Gai! It's such a good mix of flavors all at once!

I find it a challenge to eat healthy while eating out...I don't eat out that often, so when I do I just get what I feel like. A splurge once and a while is worth it.

Yum! Brown sticky rice sounds so good. I'm glad more places have brown options now, but on my trip to Georgia I couldn't find any, and the "default" rice was fried.
