Oh my, I think I ate more this weekend than I have for the past 2
weeks combined. UGH! We went up north for a family get together this past weekend. Let me tell you - my inlaws to be are totally food obsessed. Well, totally sugary food obsessed. Yes, you have all heard my yearly MIL visit complaints. Meat and veggies are an incidental side dish in this family. Next to nonexistent. Sugary filled sweets are the staple of the diet. Maple syrup bars, date bars, maply sryup pie, apple pie, berry pie, sugar, sugar sugar. When I get back into my normal way of eating, I'm expecting a carb withdrawel headach from hell!!!!! As of this morning I was up 2.5lbs. Yes, before someone goes off - I know its not weight/fat. I know that is 8750 extra calories. Well - let me tell you - if my BMR is 1300, and I didn't get any exercise in this weekend - it is feasible with how I ate that I did consume at least an extra 3500+ calories above and beyond my 1300 BMR. :-) But there is also the carb overload, the sugar overload (no way my body could use all that sugar) and the fact that I was travelling, and sitting on a plane for quite a few hours, and l;ack of sleep. I need a dose of Diva's colon cleansing diet... I'm sure the scale will return to normal once I can clean and rehydrate and get past the carb overload. It was back to bootcamp this morning. Tough to wake at 4:30am after a 4 day break from workouts. But, I'm back. |

Thank goodness I was not alone this weekend!!
I feel for you honey...I was a bad girl too...and more so by choice than you were...I look at your adventure as family obligation...MIL would not have been too happy had you not indulged...right? We went to the Texas State Fair...we go once a year...and just when I started the SBD, right? Well I had the Texas Taters, Frito Pie and yes a Cinnamon Roll...bad bad girl...so I started all over again yesterday from day one. My logic stupid as it was...is the fair comes once a year...once a year I get my beloved goods...because it's stuff I don't eat the rest of the year...but still a bad bad girl.

I'm up a good 3 or so pounds myself - some of it water, some of it fat, some of it is "backup" from irregular eating that will resolve itself shortly... det |

Oh my god...what is a frito pie? BRBR
Frito Pie...sigh... Get a bowl....put down some Fritos, then a layer of chili (with or without beans), then add your favorite cheese...some people add onions on top of the chili. Great stuff for cool weather...to me it signals the change of seasons in Texas. Love, laughter and friendship Lisa in Dallas www.beautycafe.com |

Get the idea of being a "bad girl" out of you rhead. You aren't a
bad girl for an indulgence like that, just as I wasn't a bad girl either. BRBR Deep down, I know this is true...plus I really, really had been sticking to my guns...to the extent when BF and I went to our favorite steak restaurant Friday night...I had NO bread and they substituted a potatoe for a full plate of steamed broccoli, lightly steamed I should add...it was heavenly. I really never realized until starting the SBD just what a carb fiend I had been...all of our meals always contained potatoes, rice or pasta...last night BF cooked dinner and had it ready when I got home...couldn't eat the scalloped potatoes but opted for a salad instead with the chicken.

Also canceled the wedding where the gown won't zip. I am tired and don't feel like jawing it up with a bunch of semi strangers at any weight. |

Sometimes I think we may live in the worst food place in the world Lisa,
I went to a high stakes game of Texas Hold'em this weekend where the hosts of the game set out all these beautiful dishes of chips, dips, salsas, finger food.. I looked everying over and there wasn't ONE thing that would fit into my WOE. I managed to have about 5oz of Brisket and I finally found the deviled eggs. Susan 260/219/160 --- 3weeks 1days 7:15hours of being smoke-free, 892 cigs not smoked, $165.02 saved, 3day 2:20hours of my life saved "Beauty Cafe" wrote in message ...
