Hi all,

My husband is graduating this weekend, and his parents are flying in from abroad, as well as my parents visiting for the event. I'm very happy for him and will be thrilled to see the family, but they are a very very food oriented bunch and there will be a lot of eating out and junk food and talk about food etc. They are the sort that try to convince you to eat, you know?

I'm struggling to get more and more diligent with tracking, weighing food, and have been doing c25k successfully for 6 weeks without missing a single run or walking a single step of the run intervals. Scale went down and then came back up. so obviously i'm missing something and have to get MORE diligent. Frustrating as hell. I'm trying really hard to focus on how much better I'm feeling with the exercise and nutritious food... I have an eating disorder history, so there's a lot of emotion tied up in dieting for me, and it's a little difficult for me to walk the line between being healthy and conscientious and being totally OCD. I've been healthy for a few years, but i'm definitely nervous about the weekend.

Any tips for managing a 'party' weekend such as this, or anyone want to stay in touch with me to get through successfully together?

    Hey Alex,

    let's keep eachother accountable. :)

    I'm going to a wedding this weekend where they have a donut truck coming in for their midnight snacks and just a crazy amount of really good food. So i'm going to be hobbling through this weekend, too.

    Do you have a eating plan in place? i'm working on my weekend menu, so i can make sure i don't over eat.
