    If it's a problem for you then you need to plan it out...and stick to it. Keep up with your exercise and just committ to eating healthy and keeping on track, post a pic of you in a bikini on your fridge door, and everytime you goto get something to eat, that should help you make a better choice. You need to take hold of your eating, you're the only one who can control what you put into your mouth.

    I also am looking for ideas. Week-ends are usually fairly scattered in our house with kid activities, husband's band / music rehearsing, and just social life that usually includes lots of yummy temptations. I do OK when we plan to go skiing or a day hike but this spring has been very busy with kid music obligations, kid soccer, hubby music, and b-day parties for kids and grown ups. During the week I do well with the standard routine but on week-ends I find it hard to stay being good. If we go out to eat my spouse and I have been splitting one entree which has helped. Maybe I just need to structure my week-ends a little more for eating... I guess I'm finding my own answers, but other suggestions would be nice.

    Alcohol is my weakness on the weekends....I just make sure that I work out no matter what...weekend before last we didnt get home until 12:30 and guess what? I did my 30 day shred until 1am...lol You have to learn to work around it or your lifestyle can't ever adapt :) Good luck! You'll do great!!

    I get up at 6am before anyone else and hit the gym. I always work out more on the weekend than weekdays, so I can have additional calories to eat!!! Of course having myfitnesspal on my iPhone helps me keep track of my calories as I go about my weekend.
