I had planned the whole weekend out and swore if I stuck to my plan everything would be okay.
I didn’t fail miserably but I could have done so much better. I feel like shit today and I gained 6lbs this weekend.
After reading a few blog entries from some of you guys I am feeling very hopeful. I have to remember there will be good days and there will be bad days. I have to remember that all I can do is try my best and not to forget how far I have come. I cannot think that one day of bad eating is going to ruin everything. Yes I am pissed and yes I feel like shit, but tomorrow is a new day and once I am back in to my routine for a few days it will all be back to normal again.
From now until November I do not have anything planned as far as social events so there is no reason my eating should go off track again until then. I feel like I have had about 3 bad eating weekends since I started my journey in May and in my opinion that is 3 to many. I am going to work very hard to make sure from now until November I am on track 99.8% of the time.
I want to re-cap my fail so here it goes.
*Thursday everyone is getting Chinese food I
will make weight watchers chicken fried rice the night before to have ready for
myself on Thursday night. I ate my 2 cups of weight watchers rice….along with 2 chicken fingers, one boneless rib, and a bite of veggie lomain. :-(
I will do my walk/jog or a work out video in the morning before work.
I did go for a walk/jog on Thursday morning. J
*Friday we are going to Boston for the day. I will not exercise on Friday.
I did not exercise on Friday, we did a good
amount of walking, including lots of stairs at Fenway Park. J
I will pack my own lunch and snacks
just like I would for work to keep in the car on our trip to Boston. I did pack my own food and ate it while everyone else ate pizza and dunkin’ doughnuts. J
Friday night I will have a small serving of the buffalo mac and cheese my brother is making for everyone.
I had a serving of mac and cheese alright, two big fat fat servings. Along with beer samples at the Sam Adam’s brewery in Boston, a vodka and diet at dinner, and a beer at the bar later in the night. L
*Saturday I will go to the gym for an hour
in the morning.
Saturday I did not exercise, I felt exhausted on Saturday
morning and could not bring myself to workout. L
Saturday’s food will be on track
except for Saturday night dinner at an amazing restaurant. I will not stress
about Saturday night’s meal.
Saturdays breakfast was measured and counted. Saturdays lunch I
ate a chicken wrap at a restaurant. I ordered the wrap with no bacon and no
mayo (mayo is disgusting anyways) and asked for no fries on the side. Saturdays
nights dinner I did not worry about but I felt like I was going to be sick because
I was so stuffed!
Sunday I will do my walk/jog in the
morning and there is no reason Sundays food cannot be on track.
Sunday I did my walk/jog in the morning and burned 151 calories.
Sundays food was measured and accounted for……unnntilll I started drinking. I
had 5 beers and I did not weigh or measure my dinner of chicken and corn on
the cob. I also ate 2 small slices of cake…yes two, hence the title of this
post. L
Mondays suck, so tomorrow I am back
on the wagon. Crazy machine gym sesh after work and measuring and counting all
my food tomorrow. I know after the gym and a full day of eating right I will
feel great and I CANT WAIT! Lol. I hope everyone else had a better weekend then
I did as far as eating and staying on track. I had a great weekend but I am
ready to be back in my routine!
Here are some pix of my trip! :-)

To be honest, I think you're just heavy and bloated from the beer and sodium. If you drink a ton of water and eat cleanly for the next few days, you should drop that "vacation weight" no problem. I always shoot up three pounds when I eat Chinese food.
ReplyDeleteI mean, if you think about it, 3500 calories is a pound. There is no way you ate 21,000 extra calories over the weekend. ;)
