I'm coming clean. No danger of going over in calories since I burned over 2400 today. I will tell you that is where the Sodium Monster spawns.

Still I'm trying to remember every thing I ate. I am protein sated. hehe, I think they may have had some vegetables too. Hmm, just trying to recollect.

Grabbed some well earned dessert and brought it back to eat in front of my golf buddy. He said I was going yum, hmm, wow, ooo, I don't recall that. Well he runs up and grabs carrot cake, chocolate covered bananas, and a sundae. He said because of all my noises.

Alright, I know, okay! This isn't good. However I think once in a blue moon yeah it works. Back to the healthy me...in 3......2.........1!

    Watch out man, once you walk on the wild side it can be really hard to get back on the wagon. I know how invitingthose desserts can be, I'm struggling with whether or not to make that Betty Crocker Cookie brownie mix I put on the counter today. Hellllpppp!!!!

    I had taco johns yesterday! It was the most amazing thing in my life! Well at least in the last couple of months! haha But your right, you have to partake in that every once in a while! I think if I didn't give in to my taco craving, I would have probably said screw it a couple days later and ate EVERYTHING! lol :) I'm sure I was making all the mmmm noises too!!!

    it took me almost 5 days to get back to normal, after my MINI-BINGE for Easter. I won't do that again for awhile.

    No worries! I ate chocoalte cake at a buffet a few days ago too.:embarassed: Those moments of weakness are normal & they're gonna happen from time to time. Just move on & do your best. What else can we do? I'm a major chocoholic & have been having so much trouble with cravings--no sugar added fudge pops or sugar free pudding are my friends when I can't resist. You are not alone, my friend. We all struggle with those sugar cravings! :wink:

    2400 calories in golf.....How? ....I have seen some fat people on the greens. I don't know about that but good luck to you in your journey. It's ok to slurge every once in awhile. Keep golfing!

    Golf burns 2400 calories? Really?

    I swear and we were riding in a cart. I am so tired and worn out it isn't funny. My buddy who is 63 said the was going to play golf and mow two yards. I said I doubt that! You doubt me. I respect you man, but it ain't gonna happen. Then he wanted to go the buffet. What can I say, he paid for a very expensive round of golf. I would have picked subway. After eating he jumps into the jeep and immediately falls asleep. LOLOLOL.

    I wanted to encourage him but krap, this old man was tired.

    Yep in a cart too. If I had done this without a cart it would have been near 4,000.

    I also took 5 days after Easter to get back on track. I tried so hard while my family was here but they kept wanting to go out for dinner. I was doing so good before. I think it's best to really watch how you splurge. try not to make it all junk. then when you try to get back on track it's not so difficult.

    I weigh 286.

    Yep took me 5 days after Easter to get back down. Mostly sodium from the Ham and Deviled eggs. Oh and the Cheesy potatoes. I was at Mom's. I never went over my calorie allowance either.

    I've done this before back in October. The next day I had a loss. I hope that happens tomorrow. <Crosses Fingers>

    I ate at a buffet on Saturday as well. But it was a seafood buffet and I tried to make good choices, lots of grilled shrimp and veggies. I went a bit over my calorie intake but it was delicious and worth it and I definitely don't do it everyday.
