It's Fair Season !!! Anything you're looking forward to food wise ? Will you try to log everything while staying within your goal, or will you go all out like Shaggy from Scooby Doo ?

I went to my state fair Wednesday. I logged everything and I didn't do to bad. I ordered 1 serving of things and me, my daughter and my mom shared. I also enjoy seeing the animals and riding rides, so I tried not to make it all about the food. Me and my daughter did share a deep fried twinkie though. Yum!!! lol

A fair came to our little town and I promised my kids we'd indulge in cotton candy and mini doughnuts, and we sure did. I logged everything, including the doughnuts which went against my being gluten free (and paid for it dearly with gut pain and a migraine). We had a ton of fun and enjoyed every moment, even with the aftermath I don't regret it at all!

We went to the fair Wed. I had roasted chicken/corn/biscuit for dinner then also had kettle corn and funnel cake. Then last night I went to a street festival and had more kettle corn and fry bread. Managed to stay within my calorie goal both days (barely, and only because of exercise calories) but tbh, I felt like crap all day today. Tired, headache, etc. I had a couple of really low net calorie days before that and I think those followed by the overload of food that I don't normally eat just got the best of me.

I must be the only one who doesn't actually like that stuff, lol. I'd rather go nuts on good pastries or a good restaurant than fair food. My complain every time is that I can't seem to find anything semi healthy (although typically a burger or sweet Italian sausage sandwich will do.. but I can make my own for less calories, so it's always a bit of a bummer).

the county fair is coming up this week. I cannot wait for deep fried oreos. I seriously wait all year for them.

also I typically get a 4h milkshake, grilled corn and a gyro!

Wisconsin fairs = cheese curds and beer

Log and move on. I enjoy myself but keep it in moderation too. If I go over, no biggie but I want to keep track as well. We're all losing weight to ENJOY life not to get fit and stay inside and eat celery all day. All things in moderation.

So far I've managed to avoid all the major fairs in our area. A real challenge since my parents own a popcorn stand that sells cotton candy, carmel corn, and carmel apples. I was half tempted to have my stepmom bring me home a funnel cake from the fair they are working this week but the last time I ate a funnel cake while dieting, it threw my blood sugar so out of whack that I nearly passed out right on the fair grounds.
