Avoiding the Truth


Truth be told, I have avoided posting here because this past weekend was an eating healthy diet BUST. Friday I broke down and ordered Pizza Hut and chowed on 4 pieces that night as well as more the next day. Saturday night my husband and I went out with friends and enjoyed a few drinks, a little sushi, a slice of birthday cake and then topped it off with a late-night run for lard-infused Mexican food. Sunday was slightly better, but not great.

Monday I skipped breakfast and had a 6" Subway chicken breast sub plus nearly 2/3 of a can of Pringles for lunch and for dinner, I made quiche and ate my fair share of the pie.

Ok, so to the point. Today, I stepped onto the scale expecting to be 188 again and to my great shock and surprise, the needle on the scale pointed clearly at 186! One hundred and eighty-six! Now, I ate a light dinner (cereal) last night because my leftover quiche lunch had filled me up and I didn't feel like the pasta I had meal-planned for. But really? 186?!

Totally awesome.

Lesson learned: even if I have an off day, or weekend, or week even, I can always pick up, get back on track and still lose weight. Especially right now when I have a lot to lose.
