    Nah. I'm on my plan. I have a swimsuit I want to get into. I want to get to my goal of swimming two miles in an hour and my 3x suit is causing drag.

    I will log and hope that I don't go over my goal. We are going out to eat with my family, and I will probably get what I would normally get or what I want. It's my first week and I'm hoping to see results at my next weigh-in :) One of my goals this time around is to not make excuses for over-eating or eating junk.

    Well...... I baked some piping hot sugar cookies for my mom (to be delivered at midnight) and I couldn't help but indulge in a few! Other than that, I'm just gonna eat like its any other day:)

    I'm eating what I want to, and making it fit into my daily plan. No celebration here. I try not to celebrate with food anymore.

    This. There is no no food for me... Just everything in moderation and within my daily nutrtional goals. And, if I go a little over, oh well, I try not to sweat it too much. Tomorrow's a new day. :smile:

    Since I am working this weekend, I will have a nice breakfast before bed, and then just a light meal before work in the evening. We are celebrating all the birthday's & Mom/Dad days on Wednesday since my sister is going to be in town. Then there will be cake!! lol

    It's just another day, not an excuse to pig out.

    LOL...well I'm an American living in England and Mother's Day was in March here, so nothing special planned. I usually eat rather well on Sundays here anyways though. We typically have a big roast dinner and today is no different. Lamb, roasted potatoes, lots of veggies, yorkshire puddings, and gravy...oh and a glass of red wine :) Happy Mother's Day everyone...enjoy yourselves...but not too much :wink:

    We did Mother's Day today with a late morning movie - Gatsby - with popcorn, Red Vines, J-Mints and M-Duds (shared between three of us), brought my own water, then lunch at In-n-Out for a double-double w/fries and 7UP. I did, however, refrain from getting the popcorn refilled to take home for later, and I sent the leftover candy home with the kids. In the past, those would have been mine.

    I put it in my diary notes but didn't bother looking up the info for specific logging. I know I was over, I don't need to know how much. It was yummy and worth it and not to be a regular thing.

    The in-laws get the kids tomorrow, so it's just another Sunday at home, and I plan to go very light - fruit, yogurt, dry Cheerios - kinda clean out and then start fresh again on Monday.

    Happy Mother's Day, everyone :flowerforyou:

    I'm going to PF Chang's, what I am ordering will easily fit within my daily calorie goals. I will probably have some ice cream when I get home. I can fit that in too if I really want to.

    I looked up the place we're going to and I'm planning on 650 calories. I might have dessert though, but then it will probably be berries and whipped cream, so I'm guessing another 200 calories... Planning to have a walk and a workout today though.

    I'm watching my calories, but I'm going to eat things I usually don't, e.g. homemade cinnamon rolls, bacon, and mimosas. I made the rolls this morning, and it nearly killed me not to eat one. I'm waiting until brunch, though. I moved some calories around and planned ahead for what I want to eat, so it should be all good. Now all I need is willpower lol.

    No treating today's food like all the other days. Eat to make myself healthy. That is my Mother's Day gift to me. I am also walking to work. Which is about 2.5 miles.

    Happy Mother's Day All
