Wow - I can't believe it! I'm very happy that I didn't have a gain this weekend. It just goes to show that you can enjoy/treat yourself some times without having to worry about the negative consequences/regret. I obviously didn't lose any weight - but at least I haven't had a gain yet.

Beyond all that - today has been a day of thought and exploration. Exploring ideas for my future. I had a very nice walk and talk with my sister today. It helps to be able to get things out some times - no matter how weird they may be. Yay! for today and hopes for a good loss next week!

My Birthday - cont 2!

Today was the day for the family birthday BBQ. I have to say it has been a nice birthday weekend! :D It's always fun to have those. But it was full of food and empty calories. More cupcakes, leftovers and calorie filled BBQ items such as potato salad. My body doesn't even know what to do with all the junk I have eaten. I don't eat many animal products on a daily basis, but this weekend was filled with them. I'm going to attempt to do the best I can starting tomorrow (even though I don't have to work). I'm going to mow the lawn, eat better - even though I may have my last cupcake - and make sure my week is set for good (healthy) eating!

I have also noticed this weekend that I go with the flow of eating. If someone has a cupcake - I will have one too. If they have two cupcakes - I will have two as well. It's a bad habit to have and I really need to break it. I also need to NOT have that in the house as I did for my birthday. I also need to get my sleep in order since I have been going to bed later and later each night that I'm off. Another day - another try. :)

My Birthday!

Today was a great day to spend with people close to me. It also turned out to be a great day to eat. I suppose you should allot yourself more calories on celebration days, right? Either way - I went WAY over my calorie goal for today. I ate good food - some mediocre food - drank beer and had a great day. Not every day is going to be perfect and that's okay! I don't really celebrate the 4th of July so I won't be drinking or having any lavish bbq's.

The birthday celebrations don't end today though. I'm sure there will be more tomorrow and Sunday. A cool down and attempt to get back into the swing of things Monday will be a great start to a new week as well. I don't plan to go over my calorie goal every day this weekend. I should be able to keep it simple the next few days.

I did some good alternative exercise today. I don't have to clean my place of residence often because someone else does - but I knew I was having my sister over that is highly allergic to my kittys. I decided to take 2 hours in the morning to vacuum all of the furniture, floor, dust and do anything possible to make it a better experience for her. I'm glad I was able to get it out of the way because I wouldn't have wanted to do it later.
