Fair Fun!

So...we survived our day at the fair despite its' highly grease-filled start!  We went straight from the 'Miracle of Birth' building to the 'Australian Battered Potatoes' booth.  Tasty but I could almost feel the pounds adding up as I ate them.  Thankfully, my husband and I split an order, which was still more than we needed, so we only induced half of the calories!  The rest of the day, food-wise, went very well for me.  We got some more of our favorite cinnamon-flavored nuts, we shared almonds and pecans...yummy!  Then, I had an apple, a raspberry malt and a bratwurst with sauerkraut and mustard for dinner.  That was it for food...I had a couple sodas but mostly drank water throughout the day.  Overall, I was happy with the amount of willpower I was able to summon up for the day.  I really wanted cheese curds but kept thinking about all the grease in those fried potatoes and it was enough to keep me away.  Since I had the pronto pup earlier this year at the county fair, I was able to pass on that.  The one thing I didn't get that I am regretting was the mini donuts, but I also had some of those earlier this year at the racetrack, so no great loss.  I suppose I'll have to get serious about the weight loss efforts now since the fair is over!  The rest of the day went very well at the fair and we thoroughly enjoyed the concert...even sat right in front of someone I went to high school with and haven't seen for over 20 years...so that was fun!  Next stop...the Renaissance Fair in a couple weeks!  Wine and turkey legs...here I come!
