aahlight

we had been busy adn let the time get past us...and we still had to go to Lowes to get flooring..we decided to go out..instantly i was nervous...I wanted desperatly to eat at Subway, but my scrawn family has eaten there three times last week lol...So we drove around looking for somewhere that I could get a big salad..I was afraid of the dressing..or maybe some baked chicken...we ended up in the parking lot of Lowes...there is a KFC there..we decided to stop...they had a mini buffet...I opted only for the salad bar portion...doomm....it had the coleslaw in it..damn it.....by the end of the night I had consumed 1900 calories for the day...I am on a 1700 calorie....so at 10:30 at night I worked my butt off...during the day, and including my workout I burned a total of 1083 calories....it felt good to go back under..I know how it made me feel..which was not good, but I do believe that it will help me make better choices in the future...sit down..order the chicken and thats all thats in front of me lol....it all worked out...all the while I was thinking about MFP...and having to type all those dang calories in....tomorrow is a new day..and its gonna be a great one...Tuesday is weigh in day....I post a pic when it happens..I am excited..I have worked out every day this week. sometimes twice...last week was 5 pounds..hopin for another good one....keep ya posted

It happens, usually when it happens once, you will REALLY watch yourself next time. This happened to me yesterday. We went out for breakfast and I had crepes with fresh bananas and whip cream. SOOOOO GOOOOD!!! With coffee, I had consumed over 600 calories with JUST breakfast. I went to the gym after work and burned most calories. Once in a while is not going to sabotage you.
