Memphis-style BBQ is more about the sauces, dry rubs, and cooking process than the cut of meat anyhow.
It's a bar, the only other choices were burgers and crossiant sandwhiches

Texas easy BBQ winner. Unquestioned number one at brisket, arguable one or two at ribs.

Various southeastern states clear number one at pulled pork, arguable one or two at ribs.

And Texas prob edges them at sausage and chicken too.

There is no denying Memphis has good BBQ, but so does Tyler,TX.

Tyler has some mean dry rubbed ribs and brisket. Stanley's famous pit.

I don't even fried chicken, but in Memphis polloLoco awakens from his somber. There is a couple good spots. Check out Elvis, Beale street, and fried chicken.

Memphis will always have a spot in my heart. I was in Tunica, and I was still kinda fat. I had my anytime fitness membership and I drove all the way to Memphis to get a workout in at 4am.

There was no turning back after that. That's commitment, that's habit. And ever since, exercise has been like brushing teeth. And I went from zero to a million in less than 5 years.

Get a workout in over there.

Determining when restaurants are open is hard

As is not ordering chips and salsa when you're supposedly dieting

She is addicted to food, what else did you think she was going to order.

@MLYLT
I remember asking about what kind of plan was in place a few days/a week ago, could you describe what plan you're following now and how your recent food choices relate to that plan ?

I have got to buy new clothes. I packed slacks and a dress shirt that are falling off of me and I don't have a belt :/....I'm gonna be holding my pants up all day.

I'm getting back to the plan of prepping meals twice a week, no fast food for breakfast, and fish/healthy meals for dinner.

I want to get back to walking everyday at lunch for 30mins like I was doing back in September and October. Recently I've been sleeping in my car during lunch.

I need to workout 3days a week and on the weekends. I went hiking and running this past weekend, so a good start.

MLYLT,

You're off the "let's set small and achievable goals instead of big and unachievable goals" plan then?

When are you getting back to the plan ?

Also, please turn off your signatures, if it isn't for those of us cringing at it do it because not doing so might get you a temp ban in OOT/2+2.

edit;
Obv fabian makes sense, you're biting off more then you can chew (harhar).

I expected a response like this; as someone that travels for business frequently, my hope is that the following listing of random tidbits may be useful to either you or others reading your log:

--Have you identified some sort of portable snack item (for me it's a box of Quest Bars, but it could be dried fruit, or Luna Bars, or jerky, or any number of other things) that you can keep on your person when you're making your way from Flight A to Flight B and don't want to stop at the Paradies and grab a bag of chips and a candy bar?

--When you're likely going to be eating a meal in the airport (and I would argue the excuse that "it's 11:00 pm" means that you didn't adequately plan your eating around your travel schedule), have you poked around on the airport website (which, at this point, I don't have to do because I've been to most of them, but if it's somewhere new, I'll take a look and see what's available) to see where you might be able to get something that's not super calorically dense?

--When you're going to be going out to get local fare (i.e. Memphis BBQ), whether at the airport or while onsite, have you tuned your eating for the rest of the day to be more protein heavy and a bit lower calorie than it would otherwise have to be to give yourself a bit more room to indulge? Are you modifying your order slightly such that it's not such a calorie bomb? For example, when I do local BBQ, it's essentially always a two meat platter with smoked turkey + <local meat X that I want to try> + a vegetable side (e.g. green beans) + another vegetable or mild starch side <e.g. greens or corn> OR an indulgent side if I have room for the calories (e.g. mac and cheese) + cornbread (if I have room for the calories) + a necessary but not excessive avalanche of sauce. Look at the menu, decide on what you're getting before you go, and log it early in the day so you know what targets you have to hit to remain in compliance with your diet.

--When you're choosing a hotel, are you choosing someplace with decent breakfast options and/or an onsite restaurant with reasonable options for dinner? If not, are there reasonable non fast food dinner options within close driving distance? Is there a supermarket nearby where you can buy fresh fruit and vegetables to snack on, either in the hotel room or while you're working during the day? Does your hotel room have a refrigerator? If not, do you have an insulated bag or cooler to keep perishable stuff cool for the few days you're going to be there?

Again, getting a hot link and chips at 11 is just another indicator that you're terrible at planning. It's time to start thinking about this stuff.

I read the first of her posts with a signature quickly and thought it had been intentionally modified to misspell "Tapatalk", which I remember thinking would have been an elite troll. No such luck, unfortunately.

But given the traffic here, it does seem that while mly completely ignores all the advice given to her itt, other people do use it and find it helpful.

MLY it's like you are just trolling your handful of supporters you still have left at this point with the bar sausage and chips. Your logging also seems to always be half-assed and never accurate.
05-02-2017 , 03:25 PM
I did not eat the saltines and yes I threw away the rest of the chips and salsa when I was full from the sausage. The sausage plate looked really small and I thought I was hungrier than I was.

So I went to "The One and Only" for lunch. I give it a D.

The pork was dry and terrible as well as the ribs. I don't think they even used a smoker. And, the sauce was way too sweet, not good maple brown sugar sweet, but lollipop sweet or something.

I had lunch with four old men who were Trump supporters and talked about nothing but golf and politics , uggh.

And these old ****ers from my company left me to lead the meetings today. I should have been more prepared, but I thought the old guys would handle the talking and smooshing while took measurements and stuff. Thank God the sales guy helped me out and jumped in with his smooth talking every so often.
One of the olds called my boss to confirm some numbers I had quoted, then I had her texting/calling/and up my ass all day.

Monte, I'm not eating for the rest of the day and I had a very small breakfast of one cup of Cheerios and one cup of Milk.

I appreciate you post, and I'm bout to go re-read it again.
