Thunderstorms

I wanted to post last night but there was a pretty bad thunderstorm in Georgia that knocked out our internet. I was sort of glad about it though because all day Sunday I failed miserably. Well, not all day... I smoothly avoided the doughnuts and coffee at church but when my family and friends went out to El Sombrero I binged bad. Like, right in front of everyone stuffing my face full of chips and salsa and beans and chicken - telling them how hungry I was. Bad day. I had around 8 to 900 calories in just one sitting!

As if that wasn't bad I also dabbled with mom's cooking later that night, no more than 400 calories but I should have just avoided it all together. I realized something about myself yesterday that is worth noting. I will never again allow myself to start anything on the weekends. It never works out to my advantage. Even when I'm on a good track with restricting and eating healthy - on the weekends? Forget it because nothing ever goes as planned.

Today on the other hand went grand! It started with oatmeal (159 cals). I cleaned all day while my husband was at work which was a great work out. For lunch I had half a banana (86 calories). Before the gym I had a bowl of special K (180 calories) and while I was at the gym I burned (-133 calories). For dinner I had a hard boiled egg and dry toast (140 calories). All in all? 565 calories, 432 net calories. Job well done.

I weighed in today at 138 lbs. Down one from yesterday. That's good at least! I can't wait to see what number it is tomorrow! I love seeing my numbers drop, even if it one pound at a time!
