Since today was Easter, we decided to have our once-a-month cheat meal(s) today. It started with a box of Sprinkles cupcakes - our new favorite indulgence. Heather couldn’t help but to do a little cupcake tasting with milk, cutting tiny slices out of each cupcake to determine which one she liked the most. This irritated me so I grabbed an unharmed Red Velvet and chowed down. The cream cheese topping mixed with the moist red cake was absolutely delicious. After finishing the Red Velvet I then grabbed the Easter themed Carrot cupcake with a cute little bunny on top and devoured it in 4 bites. By this time I could feel the refined sugar rushing through my veins and I knew it was time to stop. Around 1pm we went out to lunch to Locando Del Lago. We were a little hesitant about the quality of food since we had a mediocre experience a couple years back, but our other restaurant choices were all booked full. We both decided to order the Easter 3-course meal with wine pairings. It started off with smoked ham and candied fruit, then continued to a delicious veal tortellini in creme sauce. For the third course I chose the lamb and Heather chose the pike, both which were really good. For dessert we shared a flourless chocolate cake with hazlenut gelato. Overall a pretty good Italian Easter meal. A few hours later we decided to go to Wendy’s for our last cheat meal of the day.

Overall, a very good Easter celebration in food.

Tomorrow it’s back to strict eating. I’ll probably start with a bowl of oatmeal and an apple for breakfast then stay low carb for the rest of the day. I’m hoping to shred 6 more lbs of bodyfat. Then I’ll be at 10% bodyfat which is my goal. I’m just worried that I’m getting too skinny (which I never thought could even be a possibility). Soon I’ll start my next challenge of getting stronger and adding 10lbs of muscle while keeping my bodyfat around 10%.
