A few months back I blogged about wanting to slim down for an upcoming wedding I was going to in Buenos Aires. My goal was to lose 10 - 15 lbs. Well, I didn't quite make my goal, but I was down about 9 lbs by the time I left. I got home on Wednesday morning after an awesome week of visiting with friends, exploring a beautiful city, drinking incredible Malbec wine and indulging in...you guessed it, copious amounts of dulce de leche.
I think we can all agree that its pretty difficult to count points while on vacation, especially in a foreign country where the nutritional information, if its even listed, is in a different language and usually a different unit of measure! Anyway, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
How many points do you think this would be?
Yes, that's what homemade flan is supposed to look like. And because flan isn't rich enough, you simply must add about a 1/2 cup of dulce de leche on the side...and you MUST eat it ALL. It would be rude not to.
Or what about a portion of one of these dulce de leche flavored desserts?
I don't know either...but let me tell you, it was worth it!
I think that crazed look in my eyes says it all.
While I don't think vacation is an excuse to abandon your plan... I also think that it's one of those occasions where it's ok to indulge in rare delicacies that you might not be able to experience at home. I would have eaten it!
ReplyDeleteOMG looks amazing!! (And so does your hair!) :)
ReplyDeleteAmazing pics! I love eating through vacations! But also getting back to WW reality once it is done. It is a nice thing to help stop the madness!
