So I was kind of a bad this week. Ok, make that pretty bad. Friday night I made plans with my friends to go to dinner and to see Moonrise Kingdom. I knew that I would be drinking and misbehaving, but I was hoping it wouldn't be too bad.

We went to dinner at a new place downtown, Kurdis Mediterranean Grill, where I had a chicken schwarama pita on whole wheat, some dill fries (which I didn't eat much of as they weren't crispy in the least bit!), some falafel, and a PBR.

The pita was delicious and I definitely plan on going back to Kurdis again. They have a lot of menu options there that I could make healthy. Plus, I have to walk about a mile to get there, so that helps too!

After we eat, we went to The Hub, a dive bar next to the Tampa Theatre, to grab a pre-show drink. I had a tequila soda lime. Then one of my friends decided to buy a fifth of rum to sneak into the movie, so ended up sipping that a few times. After the movie we went back to The Hub where I had another tequila soda lime and another PBR. We ended up back at my place after where a friend and I finish off a bottle of Riesling. 

I woke up Saturday morning feeling terrible! I don't really think I drank THAT much, but I haven't been drinking that much lately and I have been on my new healthy kick, so that alcohol must have destroyed me!

One of my friends stayed the night, and I went with her to find her car that she had parked downtown somewhere the night before. We walked by Eddie & Sam's New York Pizza and she offered to  buy me lunch and in the state I was in, cheesy pizza sounded like it would hit the spot. Of course I forgot to take a picture, but I got a slice of Greek pizza (spinach, feta, kalamata olives) and a garlic knot. We ended up walking all over downtown because she couldn't remember where her car was, so I'm hoping I walked/sweat some of that off.

I stayed home the rest of the day yesterday which usually leads to constant snacking, but I was good and mostly snacked on fruit. I ended up making some black beans and rice with turkey sausage in it and nibble on that through out the day too.

I woke up this morning to find I hadn't gained any weight from the weekend, but had lost .5 pounds, so I was happy about that! Today I am going to make sure I get some of the nutrition I have been lacking the past few days, maybe with a juice and a veggie-loaded salad.
