Lessons Learned - I want to remember this

It's already been almost one week but wanted to get this down while I can still recall it.
So last weekend we went to Austin, just to get away and planned on "celebrating" or rewarding ourselves for our weightloss progress.
Now how that equals allowing ourselves to eat whatever we want......I'm not sure.
So we really had a great time, got their early on Saturday and hit the pool at the hotel and stomped around at the farmer's market.
It was really nice, right on Town Lake and blocks from 6th St.
Immediatley all we could talk about was where we were going to eat for lunch.
This does go back to how all of my life celebrating or doing something special mean eating somewhere nice.  The better the restaurant made it even more exciting.
One thing is that we knew we wanted quality food not just as much as we could get, Quality vs Quantity.
One of the valets suggested Hula Hut's.  It's right on the water, kind of a Tex-Mex with a Polynesian twist.
I had a ...wait for it....Fried Stuffed Avacado with rice and beans and Kyle had the Hawaiin Burger with fries.  Of course, being in Texas and it being a Tex-Mex restaurant, the meal started with a basket of tortilla chips and salsa, oh and we shared a Mojito.
As you probably guessed we managed to eat all of the chips and salsa before our meals came out.  My food was awesome.  The avacado was stuffed with chicken and cheese, breaded with Panko, and fried just enough to toast the bread crumbs.  I ate all of it, minus most of the rice and beans.
We went the State Capital and somehow managed to find an Ice Cream Festival - so had a small cup of ice cream..ugh.  Kyle did better I think, he had a small Italian Ice.
All hot and sweaty from walking around and tummy's full, we went back to the hotel and back to the pool.
We both had a Rasberry Mojito.
For dinner we found another local restuarant - the Cedar Door.  Neat place.
We both had the Cilantro Lime Chicken soft tacos ...with rice and beans.  Oh and a Blue Moon beer - Kyle, again doing better than I, got the Michelob Ultra, but I didn't eat the tortillas!
Then we managed our way to a couple of bars and clubs, I think my beer total = about 9 beers.  How many calories is that alone?!?!
Ok so about midnight or later we were done bar hopping and the after drinking hunger kicked in. 
Let me go back a little.
Since we started this diet - and never really before - but I have been CRAVING a hot dog.  Not just a pop in the microwave and put some mustard on it dog, but a Food Network - Best Hot Dogs, hot dog.  Boiled and grilled split open with mustard and sauerkraut, with tomatoes and relish with some celery salt - kinda dog.
Well there just happens to be Frank's.  It's a restuarant - not a food truck or fast food deli kinda place.  Sit down with booth's, menus and beer Hot Dog restuarant.

We walk in and are sat at our table and I'm so excited!!!  lol
I of course order the Chicago Dog and a micro brew beer and we both share a large order of waffle fries.  It was wonderful!!
Took a Pedi-Cab back to the hotel - life was good!
The next day we got up and had the breakfast buffet at the hotel.
Small omelette, slice of french toast with syrup, fruit and bacon.
Then hit the road for the trip home.
I was so worn out from all of the walking and drinking that I took about a 5hr nap when we got home.  Then went back to sleep trying to get ready to go back to work the next day.
Ok this is the part that I want to remember almost as much as how much fun we had....
We both got up Monday morning and felt sick to our stomachs.  Oh my goodness, the only thing I could think was it felt like we had a junk food hangover!
UGH we felt absolutley awful all day long.
It was horrible.
I think that all the crap we ate that day is everything we stopped eating almost 2 months ago and we shocked our systems.  Or there was so much sugar that we crashed all day Monday.
NEVER want to feel that way again.
We barely got through Monday - we both ended up coming home a little early from work.
By Tuesday morning we felt so much better.
On a side note we both gained about 8lbs over that weekend.
Took us 1 week to lose it.
How's that for unfair.
