    We had some nice roast lamb with roasted vegetables. Then a couple of pieces of a nice dark chocolate. I don't get all the drama about Easter.

    I exercised this am. I am eating what I want today---nothing too outrageous.

    I ate grilled salmon and asparagus. Then a double helping of garlic mashed potatoes and a double serving of coffee cake. I had every intention of not going overboard, but I did.

    I'm really glad I went to the gym and ate light earlier. Still, wish I had more will power.

    I was a rock star today until about 4 pm. We aren't going to talk about anything after 4 pm. But tomorrow is another day, and I'm going to KILL IT.

    I ate all of the things. But hey, one indulgent day isn't going to regain the 66 pounds I've lost. Tomorrow is a new day.

    I did very well, avoided all chocolates, scalloped potatoes, my own spinach squares, I did have wine, but red wine is both acceptable and I did account for it. The smoked ham was fantastic, had some but I had more of the roasted vegis that I brought.

    Badly! Baked a lot of Easter bread and most of it is going to work tomorrow, however, the loaf I kept for myself is shrinking... t3160os6fji4.jpeg

    Pretty awesome. Refeed day today to make sure I crush my training on Tuesday. Still have about 1000 calories to get through today, after about 2500.

    I ended up with about 1600 calories over ( a lot since I'm only 5 ft) but I did get over 10k steps in today and 15 min of weight lifting.

    I've already planned some extra work outs for this week :)

    Me and my siblings are all fully fledged adults but our mum still buys us easter eggs, and my partner and I buy each other eggs too, so...needless to say, I didn't even attempt to exercise my willpower.

    It's been surprisingly easy for me, managed to make all the Easter eggs fit into my macros eased by some cardio I did yesterday so I could have a little bit more. Weighed myself this morning and lost 1.6 lbs since last Monday so I think I'm in a small minority of people who've lost weight over Easter.

    I went WAY over yesterday at Easter. I knew there was going to be a ton of delicious food at my cousin's Easter dinner. Delicious lamb shank and ham, with roasted brussels sprouts, yummy spinach salad, green beans and a little penne a la vodka. That and lots of red wine at the all day party. I knew I was basically eating two entrees at lunch so I didn't have dinner because I was still stuffed. I wanted to try everything and went for smaller portions of the higher calorie items, but still, it's an onslaught of food when your family is Italian! So, today is a new day, I really watched what I ate and got back down to my normal calorie count. I don't feel bad about what I ate at Easter because it was a very special occasion (family reunion) and I know I don't normally pork out.

    My Easter was pretty crappy. I overrate, nothing worth the calories thanks to a family emergency, but I did pick up some Cadbury milk chocolate eggs today. I'll have some after dinner.

    I ate candy yesterday, I logged, and today I'm on track.

    I did not buy candy really tempts me though. I can eat a bag of sweet tart jelly beans all by myself. Those are my favorite non-chocolate candies.
