I finally had my first successful weekend with both food AND social activities. I'm pretty much on cloud 9 right now! :)
Friday night I was in a funk so I went to sleep early. Saturday the scale said I gained 6 pounds. I know there is NO humanly way I gained that much weight this past week because I have been SO GOOD. No eating out, exercise, and cut down on the nightly eating. So I figured it was a fluke and decided to forget about weight for last week. I'll weigh in again on Thursday and see what happens.
Anyway- Saturday morning my mom and I went shopping. I had egg beaters and ham and low fat cheese for breakfast. I packed my big water bottle for the shopping trip and a granola bar just in case. Well, mom was craving fast food and I knew I wouldn't have the will power. Luckily, we found a Wendy's! I know their stuff CAN be bad but I happen to love the chili there so I got a small chili and a diet soda. It felt like not enough but the chili kept me full for awhile. I was so proud of myself. We came home and the snow finally melted around the grill and mom made cheeseburgers. I had a turkey burger instead.
So then, and this is the exciting part, I ended up going up to my friend's apartment for a party/get together. I brought my bottle of wine. Ready for this? I DRANK ONLY THE WINE!!! Well, I had one shot BUT I gave someone a glass from my bottle and I spilled a cup all over the kitchen so I'm thinking I had about half the bottle. Which...for me is so much less than all the sugary vodka type drinks I normally get. Then, at midnight everyone wanted Pizza and I SOMEHOW convinced everyone it was a bad idea so we snacked on pretzels instead!!! I was so impressed with myself! lol.
Sunday was an okay day..I got home at about 7am and ate a mini bagel and some cream cheese. Fell asleep until about noon, got up and had cereal. Fell back asleep for a little and got up and ate baked ziti for dinner. Not the best choices but I'm not letting it get me down because I withstood so much temptation. Go me!!!
I feel better today, and I felt "skinny" getting dressed in the morning. I wanted to weigh in but didn't want to chance ruining the mood.
Sorry this is so long!
Three Things I'm Grateful For Today: 1. All night conversations that make you feel good. 2. Leftovers for lunch! 3. Getting that skinny feeling in the morning!
