    Im with ya too with my Saturday nights. Its kinda crazy to see your beer or liquor calories can add up to more than you ate in a day... BUT I still have to have that break every once in a while. :)

    I know exactly what you mean. My treat night is friday - "funtime friday" where I enjoy a couple of glasses of wine and maybe have some chocolate, or like you, bread with butter on. I've only been doing this for 3 weeks and have managed to lose 11 lb so far even with the friday treats.
    I absolutely refuse to feel guilty as if I did, I think I'd comfort eat, so what I do is eat less than my 1,200 calorie allowance on maybe 3 days per week and build a stash of extra calories that I can use on friday night and I always calorie count everything out including my treats. Not sure if this is ok to do but it seems to be working for me and stops the guilt!

    I'm finding as each week passes it gets slightly easier to avoid the weekend blow-out. I work away in the UK and am usually very occupied in that period so it is not that hard to follow my plan. Once home it's been a case of rewarding myself for being good, and of course over-doing it. I now try to eat slightly more on weekdays and to train myself not to binge when at home. I've only been on MFP for less than a month but so far it has helped me to maintain my discipline over this tough part of my week. Oh, and I have ditched the Friday/Saturday alcohol and have yet to really miss it.
