They don't call it Sunday Funday's for nothing! Joe and I got a little carried away on Sunday. Not OOBER BAD but still, when counting calories and you see how much FAT you consume its a tad crazy.
So Sunday I come home from work and Joe is brewing beer with a friend. I walk past our little bar (Its our alcohol we keep on the bookshelf, not really a bar.) We have Jameson, Johnnie Walker Red Label Glenfiddich, and El Jimador Tequila. Well a couple weeks ago Joe and I discovered this mix called Baja Bob's Sugar Free Mix. It has no sugar and no calories so we feel pretty good about ourselves. Welllllll that was a Sunday too and for some reason we associate Sunday's with Margaritas for some reason.
So we made Sassypant's Margaritas we each had 6 of the delicious concoctions. 2oz of tequila in each drink! Wow!! So by the end of the 6th one, I was getting hungry. I am a guilty snacker and junk food eater when I drink. So I was on my computer when a Papa Johns ad popped up.
UH -OH.
I use to be a frequent guest of Papa Johns. So I logged onto my account, ordered a Large Pepperoni and Sausage pizza with Blue Cheese Sauce and extra Garlic Sauce. Joe and I DEVOURED the pizza. We went to bed full satisfied and drunk. The next morning was not pretty.
So Joe was hung over, I got to sleep in and we went to track out calories on My Fitness Pal (www.MyFitnessPal.com) and what we discovered was ridiculous!!
For dinner which is what I tracked the pizza and margaritas under which ironically is named "Healthy and Lite" I consumed:
Calories 1,480
Carbs 58g
Fat 60g
THAT WAS JUST IN ONE SITTING!!! Margaritas alone were 600 calories!
I ended up being 1,214 calories over and 59g of fat over my goal.
What is crazy is that before Joe and I would order 2 medium pizzas and eat a whole pizza each to ourselves. If 3 slices are 570 calories think about how many a WHOLE pizza is!!! It is crazy counting calories how much you consume. It puts a whole new light on food.
