D: Had a dinner party at my place, we had a them of Picnic in January, so I had chicken and veggie kabobs, Armenian potato salad, a veggie pizza made with ranch dressing and raw veggies and croissant dough, pasta salad, BBQ chicken wings, hamburgers, and cupcakes (way too many cupcakes)
I'm going to start with today because I don't think I could recollect what I had over the weekend. I am back at home and planning on eating very healthy this week to make up for last week, when I wasn't doing so well.
I'm going to try to remember what all I ate this weekend:
Saturday:
B: Oatmeal w/ bananas, honey, toasted almonds, black tea
S: Uhhh...we went to a small wine tasting
L: 1/2 a fried fish sandwich w/ half the fries, beer
D: Shrimp over a salad w/ kiwis, carrots, almonds, glass of wine
Sunday:
B: Potatoes, 2 scrambled eggs, and a slice of cheese w/ hot sauce and salsa in a tortilla (soooo good, but so not good for you), green tea
L: Leftover curry noodles
D: Small piece of pork tenderloin, cole slaw, glass of wine
I didn't do all that well this weekend because I didn't exercize at all, but I ate decently. I gave myself a splurge each day but tried to be good the rest of the day.
D- 2 tacos from Baja fresh and about 1/3 of a tortilla soup
champaigne, peanut m and m's, and a cosmo.
Sunday:
B- coffee
L- chinese buffet. I didn't really like anything though so I don't think I actually ate much. Maybe like 3 steamed dumplings and a few forkfulls of veggie lomein?
D- homemade bread stuffed with grilled chicken, mozzarella, and spinach (10 points or so)
S- tea with honey, more peanut m and ms
no real exercise, but I spent the entire weekend cleaning so that has to count for something right? Oh except for the 4 hours spent standing in line at the dmv...
I did great all weekend then we had Whataburger last night I hate food hangovers- it's like I can't believe I ate that! I guess we'll see how much I have to pay for it. So i'm not eating much today, drinking tons of water & living on carrots....

Don't punish yourself too much. A burger on occasion isn't going to ruin everything. Just take an extra walk today and eat well and put it behind you. You're doing such a great job so far, so don't beat yourself up over this.
And so begins "Operation lose 5 lbs before visiting people I haven't seen in a year". I have 4 weeks, so I might even be able to get to 6 or 7 if I'm good. Sigh. Tried to go for a walk yesterday but it was really freaking windy, so did 20 minutes on the stationary bike instead.
Monday:
B: Cheerios, coffee
S: Banana, peppermint tea
L: Clear barley soup, carrots, 1/2 cucumber sandwich on wholewheat
S: Apple, peppermint tea, yogurt
D: Fajitas w/FF sour cream, low-sodium black beans
E: Beefed-up pilates routine today

Oh Laken1 its ok if you have a bad meal here or there. When I do WW I always give myself one or two meals off (usually friday and sat) where I count like normal for breakfast and lunch then for dinner and drinks I throw out the points. I still manage to lose weight like this but I'd probably lose faster if I didn't do this but I don't want to tell people i can't go places or I can't do anything. Plus sometimes its nice to eat mexican and not worry about how many chips you eat.
B: kashi go lean crunch with blackberries (yummy) and 1/2 cup skim milk (3 pts)
L: jason's deli create your own on wheat with oven roasted turkey, lettuce, spinach, and sprouts. 1 cup strawberries (7 pts)
S: Key Lime Luna bar (3 pts) (I am hooked on Luna bars - they are delicious)
D: tuna helper (never had this so I hope its good) & applesauce (8 pts I am thinking??)
S: WW banana pudding. 3 pts.
E: I will go and do 30 mins on treadmill and maybe an extra 10 mins of workout on the bike. I need to start adding time into my workout.
Laken1 - don't worry about it! That's what flex points are for. Kick your exercise into high gear a few times this week (an extra 10 minutes here and there) and you'll be fine. It's no biggie every once in awhile to treat yourself!
