Faded Jeans Living

This week, I did something I never, ever do. I’ve been going to the Hungry Bear restaurant for years for breakfast with the guys on Thursdays and have never brought food home. Whatever I ordered ended up in my belly, not in a box. Well, today that all changed. I brought home about half of my “Cindy Lou” – scrambled eggs mixed with ham and bacon on a bed of seasoned hash browns, topped with sausage gravy, served with your choice of toast.

You can still enjoy your food and stop when you’re full, but let me tell you, it wasn’t easy. I know it should get easier in time. I just can’t believe I used to eat the whole thing. Sorry, I forgot to get a photo—it’s HUGE! I actually left very full in regard to the scale I use. Definitely a win. Determining my level of fullness is something that’s hard to gauge. I will continue to work on that.

I ended up going to Wally World after work to get some Tupperware. I got this beauty to take to The Bear. I figured I’ll be making this a habit, so why not bring my own box?
