Thursday February 10, 2011 Too Many Treats

Today's Good Things:
Productive day getting my house in order
Lovely afternoon walk with my sweeties
Good choices on food...until dinner time
Scale is still down

Today's Not So Good Things:
Too many treats with dh
Slept in late making it difficult to get our day rolling on time
Still not getting in my Morning 15s

I was doing so great today. I had my sights set on the scale being down almost 2 pounds and wanted to work hard to keep it that way. Dinner time hit and I'm not really sure what happened. Dh has been so busy going to meetings, we haven't had much time with him these days. We decided to spend the hour before he left hanging out and sharing some kettle chips. I was good with that, I had plenty of calories to end my day.

Well, those chips must have opened the door to indulgence. While we were cleaning up dinner dishes, I gobbled up the one leftover muffin on the counter. Then, when dh got home from his meeting, we both enjoyed some peanut butter and jelly toast. Man, didn't we treat ourselves enough?  One thing really does lead to another. I ended the day still eating to lose, but I was hoping for a stronger finish.

Tomorrow will be busy and challenging.  My dd is hosting her annual Valentine's Day Tea Party. We'll have a houseful of friends and treats. I'm going to keep my hands too busy to munch...I hope!

  2. Thank you, Angie :) I am a bit Energizer Bunny-ish, aren't I? lol

    Official weigh-in tomorrow. I've resisted the treats so far and had a great breakfast and lunch. Lord, keep me focused on you during the party!

    Taste and see that the LORD is good, right? :D
