Day 8: Trying New Things

Trying new things is good.

Bet you think this will be something healthy living related.

Nope.

I went morning drinking for the first time in my life.

Now, it's not as bad as it sounds.

The fam woke up super early (5 am) to go hiking with me.

Then we went out to breakfast, something we rarely do.

(we are not a family of early risers, plus, I do that work at night thing)

So, we went to Oink Cafe and I really wanted to try the mimosa flight.

You pick 4 flavors to try, and they are probably about 4 oz each.

Left to right flavors:  orange, grapefruit, peach/mango, and strawberry/banana.

I didn't love them. But I couldn't waste them.

That would just be irresponsible.

I also tried Eggs Benedict for the first time.

Eh.

But I'm glad I tried.

Now, the big question.

How does this fit into the healthy living?

I only ate 1/2 my food. And only 1/4 of the hash browns.

( side note: it's crazy how good some things taste when you don't overindulge anymore. crispy shredded potatoes, I'm talking about you)

I still ended up using 16 of my 33 points on that breakfast, but I just ate super low points the rest of the day. I even ended up with 2 leftover points.

Splurges can be done.

That is the pure beauty of this program.

Ok, so here are a few more photos from the morning.
