I'm totally down for that! It helps me to know I have to confess everything.

confession time...
I had a weird weekend. I'm a single parent and I'm not used to being able to get away from the kid for any amount of time. But my step dad took my son on sunday which freed me up to go to my friends bar for a "bloody mary bar". so, I'm referring the yesterday as "bloody sunday" because I had two huge bloody mary's which I KNOW had way more alcohol in them then the usual amount...then...heres where it gets bad
between 5 ppl we shared calamari, crab cakes and an order of crab and avocado dip. And then, here's where it gets even WORSE
we went back to my friend parents house and had grilled blue fin tuna belly...super fatty...really fatty...oh gawd! and a white rice/brown rice blend...and deep friend prawns. More beers...a coctail...don't worry, I didn't drive I'm a bike rider, very anti petrol right now. But wow, that was the worst alcoholic weekend I've had since before I became a parent. And here I was earlier in this thread preaching about abstaining while dieting. Freakin hypocrite! Just smack me now! I didn't even bother adding it all up, I just know that I went from 189 friday to 192 today. *pouts* back on track.

Ghost-don't be too hard on yourself. I think the most important thing we can remember is that anyone can have an off time, but it's making sure we don't get down on ourselves and quit. Yesterday I was on plan for counting and exercise and I felt great. I'm barely a week into my new plan, but I hope I can be just as supportive as anyone else! I do like this weekend accountability. Good job everybody! See you back next week.

As far as i'm concerned, we're all human. Wait until I get together with my best friend for a day. It's an all out food party day and I try my best to not have regrets. I figure if I eat healthy 90% of the time, I'm allowed one day a month to just go nuts. It sounds to me like you had a much needed fun day, so good for you!

Hey ghost - being a single parent, I think you deserve a party day every once in a while. We all do, but you gotta take 'em when and where you can!

Since cdiem suggested continuing with the reporting, here's my report for today. I had a good Monday!
b- two slices ezekiel bread w/spray butter

It always feels so good to be back on track. Tomorrow I'm going to yoga and planning to jog.

I went and had ikea breakfast I gave the sausage and homefries to my husband but I ate the 2 small pancakes and eggs and crousont, lunch I had mr sub 6" turkey breast with ligh mayo and about 3 oz of orange pop until Ifelt guilty for having the pop so I threw it out dinner...3 slices oout of a large pepperoni pizza from boston pizza and a mini apple streudel thingy....surprisingly only around 1660 for the day but thats still 260 more then I am supposed to have

I would love to be accountable next weekend. i am totally mad at myself for this past weekend I had 7 (SEVEN) beers Saturday. Ouch!

Heres to behaving ourselves and doing something productive instead of stuffing our faces.

well tomorrow I should be ok I work in the morning then go to my moms in the afternoon. Sunday however I have a 50th birthday party...we shall see ow this goes. The good thing is I have a week until my vacation and I really want to lose 5lbs so this will push me not to screw up

I am staring down the gullet of another weekend. And I am hoping I have the strength to hang tough. There is a bag of popcorn on top of the fridge, calling to me, every time I pass by. It isn't good, healthy, lo-cal popcorn. Oh. No! It is luscious, yummy, finger-staining, fatty cheese popcorn.

So, I also lift my glass of water and wish you all a healthy, successful, OP weekend.
