Margaritaville & Rule #45

We finally got sun in Portland! AND heat! Yay for vitamin D! I was so good this week and really focused on buying higher quality food and not overeating. The one night where Ryan and I ate way too much was when we went to the restaurant Pok Pok with a friend. We let our friend order because Pok Pok is one of her favorite restaurants and she knew all of the best dishes. I couldn't control myself the food was so good--if you haven't been there you should go! You will pay more, but you might also eat more too....

To celebrate the sun Ryan made me a homemade margarita. Ever since we gave up high fructose corn syrup I have been missing my margaritas (the majority of margarita mix from the store is filled with horrible stuff). Ryan used limes and lemons and made a simple syrup. It definitely hit the spot!



This week we will focus on a similar rule, Rule #45: . . . Eat less. Pollan discusses how the caloric intake for Americans is way higher than necessary and is a major contributor to things like obesity and cancer. I will continue to work on skipping unnecessary second helpings and avoid eating when I am bored. I am sure Ryan will continue to accuse me of starving him. ;)
