Day 24 - Cheat Day

Last Saturday was my first real cheat day.  I've had other Saturdays already but since i pretty much just got started I thought it best to not really cheat just yet.  This last Saturday however was a different story.  I had sacrificed many different meals and delicious desserts and knew that this time, I rightfully deserved my first ever real cheat day.

The day started great!  I got up fairly early for a Saturday and soon made my way to pick up my Son.  My son and I sadly don't live together, he lives with his mom, but I have him on all Saturdays when he's in town.  His mom takes him out of the country pretty often.

Once i got there, I had been given a 6 pack of Toblerone that they had gotten while in Canada for the summer.  Right away i celebrated that it was cheat day and that i'd be eating these chocolates in no time at all.  We drove out to the mall and since i hadn't eaten yet I suggested we head to the nearest Pancake House for Brunch.  The first thing i ordered was a Banana Split!  Yup, I had a banana split as the first thing i ate that day.  Here's what the delicious banana split for Pancake House looks like!


So that's what we had as our appetizer.  And then i ordered this meal!


That is a salad with bacon bits and other salad goodness.
It also comes with 2 pieces of chicken that are caramelized and oh so good!
Plus it also comes with this!

A waffle!

I was so full though by the time i finished my salad and chicken that my son ended up eating the entire waffle.  He loved it though and i was quite thrilled to see him just eat the banana split and the waffle.  Then again, he did have lunch before i got to his house and "wasn't hungry." :)

From there our day went on.  We headed to the arcade and played something like P200+ worth of machines, mini bowling, and another game where you roll a ball and try to make it shoot in different holes.  We also headed to a couple of sports shops as i wanted to check out prices of shorts and shirts that i could use for exercising as well as the different stuff i'd been recently enjoying like dumbbells, punching bags, hand wraps and boxing gloves.

It didn't take too long before i was somewhat hungry again so I thought, "Hey, lets go grab a jamaican patty!"  He loved the idea and so off we went for a beef classic and an iced tea.


After that we decided to split and head out to my family gathering where we were having a mini reunion / get together since it's been a month or two since we'd all been together.  I started out our time there with a coca cola!  I didn't even realize how much i'd missed drinking this shit...


Until i had another one!!!


However, if you know my family, there's no way you're going to get away without drinking, so i grabbed a San Mig Light to be allowed to be there.  


Not long after, dinner was served.  I helped myself to a meat sauce spagetti with regular noodles (none of that whole wheat bullshit that i don't need to eat on regular days.)  There was also a piece of beef that was covered in some kind of gravy.  I helped myself to it and loved it!


And what's a family dinner without a great dessert!  

This is an Ice Cream Cake and even as i was slicing it i knew it was going to be heavenly...


So heavenly in fact that i ate my nephews left overs :)


After that I had one last been and we made our way home.


It was a beautiful Saturday and ill always cherish every moment of it.  Can't wait for next saturday!  

I love you my Son and my Wife!

Life without you would be no life at all!
