    Damn Free Continental Breakfast!!!!!!!!!!!

    On the road again, this morning went over for the free breakfast, toast, bagels, donuts, cereal, fruit, fresh hot coffee (high test), fruit juices, milk, fresh make it yourself waffles with unlimited syrup . . .and I DIDN’T EAT ANY OF IT!!!!!!!!!!

    Over hidden in a corner were some boiled eggs in their shell floating in a bath of iced water and pork sausages. Two eggs cut up with a pat of butter on top and 4 pork links and I’m still on induction – great training for boot camp.

    You are lucky. Most of the continental breakfasts I attend the only thing I can eat is the butter.

      LOL Lowcarb. Too true.

      You are lucky there were some other options. Good for you in staying away from the other stuff.

        Yup, that happens to me all the time. And bagels are a big weakness for me. Just gotta push past it.

          Love your sig line "If we aren't supposed to eat animals, why are they made of meat?", saw a guy wearing a t-shirt that read - There’s a place for all God’s creatures, next to the potatoes and gravy on at my plate. I guess we will have to Atkinize it a bit, but it’s the thought that counts eh?

                  Great going, Gary. I do quite a bit of traveling, and I know how difficult that is. When I'm staying somewhere that doesn't have anything I can eat, I just avoid the breakfast room and go to McD's and order eggs and sausage -- without the biscuit and hashbrowns. They usually cut the price for me.

                    good for you! We can call the hotel andfind out exactly what is on their breakfast tables so you don't go in there not knowing and get called off the wagon.

                      Way to go Gary. I hope I'll be able to do the same. I just found out I have to go out of town tomorrow night.

                        Thanx for all your encouragement, however one kind person pointed out that I spent enough time looking that I could list all the bad stuff LOL.

                        They were right, must have some underlying cravings still going on, but I got past them this morning anyway.

                          I have gotten into the habit of if I go somewhere and will be staying in a hotel I take a cooler with food or visit a local grocery the night before.

                          Good job on being strong!!!!!!

                            I am a gypsy and spend a lot of time on the road and I always avoid Continental Breakfasts cause they are nothing but carbs. I am really proud of you to avoid it all.
