    Yep, I blew it, too. Queso dip. Shrimp dip. Tortilla chips. Ruffles. Beanie weenies. Cherry turnovers. Hot wings. But, my saving grace is that I didn't go over by as much as I thought. (from my calculations, anyways) I also quit eating when I was full. AND I was tempted to drink pop, but I didn't!! Had water instead. It's the little things, huh?

    Right there with you-- wings, spinach dip, chili dip, cold cuts-- even just a wee bit of this and that added up to way too much for the day.

    Back on track tomorrow, friends--

    I was horrible!!!!! Ate pizza and breadsticks and all the carbs you can imagine. Yuck! To be honest, I ate badly all weekend. Sucks! I want to get back on track first thing tomorrow. I hated this weekend.

    I skipped the game (as I've said before, since the 'Boys weren't playing, why watch? LOL! :laugh: ) and went to dance class instead. That West Coast Swing is harder than it looks! Anyway, didn't have a single beer or any bad food which is good, because as someone else already pointed out, beer & football go together, and a single beer would've never done it!

    I let myself splurge yesterday. But Saturday I really kicked my own butt working out so I don't feel as guilty as I normally would have.
    I also didn't get up to do my workout this morning, so I have to do it tonight. Really sucks sitting behind a desk all day!

    I don't think I blew it, but I had things, I probably shouldn't have. Chicken wings, crap dip,pretzel flats, and of course BEER! hahaha. We had a veggie pizza that we made at home, so I think that was okay. I was able to control what when on the pizza and it was very good! But I like the rest of ya. I'll be working out extra hard this week. Little extra time on the treadmill. Oh the humanity! :drinker:
  • I blew my healthy eating too and I kind of thought it would be worth it too cuz I thought needed a break. But my gut was so mad at me for eating so much junk! I felt SO sick last night when I went to bed. And I didn't have alcohol, just horribly unhealthy food! So it taught me...not worth it.

    Ahhh, it happens and you need to enjoy it sometimes.

    I enjoyed myself yesterday. Actually, I had a pretty good weekend!! :laugh:

    BUT, there are 3500 cals in a pound. So you would have to eat an additional 3500 cals on top of the cals you need to maintain during the course of the day to gain a pound.

    So, as long as you don't let it become "The norm", you will be ok!! :wink:

    Just get back on track today and do your thing!

    I know I am at goal (and pregnant) so my goals are different but I will tell you that I enjoyed Super Bowl last year (chips and dip, baked ziti, etc etc) and it didn't derail me. No worrieds! :bigsmile:
