    Overall, not so bad. But I did have a few times that I gave in. I went to my niece's birthday party on Saturday and couldn't keep my hands out of the chip bowl. LOL. Then I had a hotdog. Then I finished it off with a nice piece of birthday cake. On Sunday I was feeling really emotional thinking about my mom who passed away some years back and headed straight for McDonald's for a burger and fries. But on the good side, I did get up early Saturday morning and go to my gym. I've never got up and gone on a Saturday. So I was happy I did that.

    Friday I went way over because we had Chinese for lunch and grilled burgers for dinner but I still did good because of my exercise. I was under on Saturday and did 8 hours of yard work. Sunday I was under but no exercise. Today.. Down 2 lbs.

    Graduation parties, birthday parties, Mother's Day equals lots of food and NO exercise! This weekend was pretty bad. It seems like I ate EVERYTHING and didn't track anything! Today is a new day! HOW WAS YOUR WEEKEND?

    I did the same thing :( But you know what, today is another day. Just get up, dust yourself off and start over again!!

    I drank my weight in ounces in beer (literally) and hate fried food for the first time in a very long time. I was contracted to make a cake (free time hobby/extra money thing) and sampled the merchandise several times. Feel guilty, heck no. Just got back on the wagon today.

    My weekend was fantastic. Fun, entertaining and very social. What weekends should be, before all of us got obsessed with diet and exercise.

    You can't beat yourself up for having fun (or what I like to call "living"). This isn't a diet, it's a lifestyle. It's a forever thing and every once in a while we are all going to get off track. And actually that's a good thing. Because if we didn't we wouldn't be human.

    My weekend was wonderful! Oh, you meant food... yeah, didn't do so hot... That's okay though! I've already declared this day "Damage Control Monday" for all of us who enjoyed our Mother's Day weekend :) Let's get it back on track!

    I like "Damage Control Monday."

    Saturday wasn't terrible, but I didn't even bother logging what I ate yesterday :-/ Let's just say my family is from the south, and we had dinner at Grandma's last night. LOL

    Weekends seem to be SO much more difficult. I still make sure to track everything to keep it in perspective though. I felt SO guilty when I logged a deep fried Snickers!

    Just out of interest, how many calories in a deep fried snickers? :sick:


    My weekend was not too bad, very good on Saturday even, not so good yesterday, but I suppose between the two days it was reasonably balanced. And now it's Monday, back to the grindstone.

    Between Saturday and Sunday I ate 6558 calories and burned 1086 via exercise. I went over my calories by 1952.

    Guilt? Nope. Starting fresh today? Yep.

    I definitely don't feel guilty about anything I ate (especially the carrot cake cheesecake from cheesecake factory :-)) Its much easier to stay on track during the week. I think indulging a little on the weekend isn't a bad thing. It gives me a little motivation to push myself harder the other 5 days of the week!

    Surprisingly it showed up as 440 calories which I thought would be higher.

    I went up to Dallas to say goodbye to friends and family, as I am moving from Texas and boy did I eat and eat and eat!!! I didn't log anything and I said "yes" to everything - but today is a new day and I am doing good so far!

    I had quite possibly the most stressful weekend I've ever had at work...both good and bad stress. I didn't eat well. I didn't pig out, but I didn't fuel my body the way I should have. I just finished a Jillian workout and I'm ready for more! Boy, did I miss working out! But I ran my butt off at work, so at least I wasn't sedentary :ohwell:

    I was on antibiotics so I didnt drink. Its amazing how much of a difference that makes for me! not only do i not get the calories from the drinks but i also dont eat tons of crap like i usually do when i drink.

    Exercise this weekend was great - hiking and spending time shooting various different guns/target practice.

    Food - eh no bueno, but then again what do you expect when you go camping.

    Today is a new day - and just keep looking forward!!!

    I'm glad this topic was posted...mine was not good either...it started out with a hike which was great but then we went over to our friends place and ate Chinese food. And then I had wine on Mother's day which causes me to go ahead and eat more than I should. I am at a point I'm ready to say I will not go out to eat or visit with friends for three weeks (it takes at least that long for something to become habit).

    My weekend wasn't too bad. It was one of the first warm summer days we've had this year so I got lots of fresh air. Except for the Mothers Day bbq (steak....mmmmm) Pepsi, and chocolate, it was good! But even with those things I stayed close to my goal for the day. I don't regret one bite.
