Default Starvin' and its margarita night! UGH

So this morning was hectic. Baby woke up late, wanted some lovin' and kept throwing his sippy cup at me and it broke open and got all over my shirt. Did I change, uh........no! Then my husband said he didn't know he had to pick up the sitter. Since I woke up late too I had no time to make lunch, which I didn't make last nigh like I have been! So, no time for making lunch and no time to wait for the water to boil for eggs. Ran to Jack and got a ham and cheese without bread. It was good, but for some odd reason I am really hungry today. I have cheese and meat in the fridge here but not that much. I guess I will stop on the way to job #2 and get something.
Well, I am the social chair at my school and tonight is our monthly night out. I had planned this months ago at my favorite Mexican Place. I mean this place has the best margarita's in the world. Food ain't to shabby either. WHAT AM I TO DO!!! Need reinforcements!

Mexican food, some of it, is just fine for LC. Fajitas are great. Just stay away from the torillas. My weakness is the gut bomb burritos at a local taco shop. Yup, I step off and eat the whole thing. It is one of my small little insurrections that I allow myself. The killer at a mexican resturaunt is that darn bowl of chips and salsa. Do your best to stay away from that thing. On the Margaritas... After a day like that, I sure wouldn't blame you for partaking. Be sure to have a designated driver around. Good luck. And have a better day tomorrow.

I thought we couldn't have margarita's. Especially strawberry. I am going to order the fajitas! Great idea, I will just skip the tortillas. You know, over lettuce it could be really good. Like in Thailand. Oh, I am ready now! Tom, you are the best!

I found the stats for Margaritas: Here they are

Stats Frozen margarita (2 ounces tequila, 4.5 ounces margarita mix, salt): 27 carb grams, 246 calories.

Margarita on the rocks (1.5 ounces tequila, 1 ounce Triple Sec, 1 ounce fresh lime juice): 8 carb grams, 182 calories.

Hawaii, I think I'd stay away from them if I were you, unless you order the Maragita on the rocks! Definately stay away from the Strawberry Maragritas.

Take care.....Have fun......

By the way, Hawaii, your hunger going away is a normal part of this WOL. Great, isn't it? I just asked about that the other day. I was worried, because I wasn't hungry at all. Some of the vets around here came and told me what was going on. Apparently, it means that your body has tunred on the fat burners! Yay!!!

I think I will skip the margarita and go right to vodka. Oh, wait, I think that was my downfall before. Oh, it may just have to be water. I am fun, I can do this. It is just tha karaoke later. Got to get up the nerve.

IF you can find it, Baja Bob's makes LC friendly margarita mix in traditional flavor and strawberry. I have the strawberry, which I have forgotten about, in my frig. The stats are as follows:
Serving Size: 4 oz.
0 on everything but carbs: 2 carbs per serving and 1 fiber. So a net carb count of 1.

Their website is www.bajabob.com
Don't know if they have a store locator.

Looks like the nearest places to you would be in CA, and I don't know if they would ship you some.

Thanks for the link Barb, I guess I would have to order some on-line! Looks like the closest store for me is in New York!

Baja Bob's stuff is available at Netrition, too. It's pretty good.
