Add my name to the list. Not sweating it either, tomorrow is a new day.
On the menu today: Burgers, hot links, grilled chicken, crab stuffed salmon, macaroni salad, potato salad, bbq chips, baked beans, watermelon and liter of coke for 5.

I had one stuffed salmon filet, half cup of macaroni salad, half cup of baked beans and about two handfuls of bbq chips. I then moved onto half cup of watermelon and in between, yes this is about to become weird.... I had post raisin bran cereal with 2% milk haha!!! I could have done worse. Oh yes forgot the cup of coca cola.

Guess what?? I do NOT FEEL GUILTY AT ALL! If you over ate today and you know you did and you are not going to take it hard on yourself because tomorrow is a new day and we are allowed to splurge....add your name to this list!!!

    I totally agree with you. I didn't splurge today but if you need moral support I'll be happy to down a cup of strawberry shortcake that is sitting in the fridge. :laugh:

    Woohoo. I oinked! bunless hamburger with ketchup, potato salad, tons of black bean salsa and baked tostitoes, two bowls of watermelon, shrimp, handful of olives, I did manage to stick to water the whole night--yay me! The biggest thing is that I have no idea how much I had of most of the items. Wasn't about to start measuring,and frankly, didn't care. But now I am going to have fun logging all that junk in. Curious to see how many calories I really consumed. But I agree--NO GUILT! I will be right back on track tomorrow!:wink: Great fun, great friends, great fireworks...It was all totally worth it if you ask me!

    Happy 4th, everyone!

    I have completely been there. I'm totally spending most of my calories today on alcohol because I NEVER drink.

    I totally took the day off. Reached my 50 lb. goal this morning and promised myself for the past 6 months that I would eat whatever I wanted today. AND I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO LOG IT, FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER! Absolutely no guilt. I celebrated independence, and tomorrow will start on the next 50. Happy Birthday America, and here's to 50 lbs. lost! Woo hoo! Mary

    You can add my name to the list! We had a bbq at home, and boy did I splurge!


    Although...I was bored the last hour and ran 4.5 miles on the treadmill and burned off around 630 calories. :tongue:

    I'm snacking on some cheetoes right now :laugh:.

    I rarely ever splurge though so I have no need to feel guilty when I do.

    I spurged by having some tri tip, beans, and ranch on my salad along with a slice of french bread and a few tortilla chips and salsa!!! And for desert...two cookies which were delicous :laugh: I could have eaten more, but didn't...but could have also eaten less! I still avoided soda, had ALL my water and took my fiber and vitamin pills. I had a great night, it was my 7 month olds first 4th of July and he loved all the fireworks and I loved not counting my calories (though still smartly aware) and just kickin back relaxin with the family and having a great time!!! Tomorrow is a new day and i'm ready to be back on track!!!
