What a week! The work-trip was quite productive and very very busy.  I’m very happy to be home.

I went off-plan on Saturday, then on Sunday I ate on-plan all day long, then blew it at the movies.  Yeah, the dreaded popcorn again!  OMG that is the only temptation that gets to me.  I love me my popcorn!

Today I’m back on the wagon!

It’s always incredible to me how much I gain when I eat off-plan.  Three whole pounds this time.  Three!  I’m assuming that it’s partly water-weight from so much salty stuff (low-carb is naturally low-salt) because even though I did go off-plan and eat a buncha stuff I’m not supposed to eat, I know I didn’t eat ten-thousand calories (three pounds worth!)!!!  I’m not worried about it, though, because I’m gonna work it off.

My hubby works the days shift during the summer, so we can play tennis in the evenings!  He worked a ten-hour day today and I left it up to him as to whether or not he wanted to go play and he said yes!  He wanted to eat first, though, so we didn’t get to the courts until 8:15, which meant that there was only about a half-hour of daylight left.  It’s okay, though, we got a half-hour in, of really good sweaty workout.  It was a good re-introduction to exercise!

Yeahhhhh I’m back!!!

    Welcome back. At least you’re catching it at three. I went off-plan and gained 20! Now I feel like I’m starting all over again. You’re already so far ahead of the game!!

    Welcome back. :)
    Man I LOVE popcorn. It is hard to go to the movies and smell it and NOT eat it. Sooo I go to the movies AT lunch time and sneak in a subway sub and baked chips and then buy a small diet pop for $5! I know baaaaad girl. LOL

    Glad you finally got your tennis in! I just don’t have it in me to say no to movie popcorn. Fortunately my husband rarely finds a movie he wants to see, so I’m rarely tempted.

    I like Joy’s idea of basically packing a lunch instead & we all know her yummy lunch is better calories/fat/chemical-wise than popcorn.

    What is it about movie food? I go to the movies at least once a week (I work there, so get my movies for free and the food – which I’m expected to buy on account of the free movies – at a discount). I would LOVE it if they offered REAL food at the movies. Then I’d have a movie and lunch. But no. I get popcorn because it’s cheap and then I eat it. Maybe we should start a “real food at the movies, please” movement.
