The weekends are very difficult for me when it comes to sticking with a "Lose Weight Look Great!" plan.
I took the girls to see "Percy Jackson..." Friday night while Victor and the boys went on an overnight scout campout. Allisa pursuaded me to buy a tub of popcorn; three icees; sour patch kids; and a package of twizzlers.
We watched the movie and consumed the junk. However, after about one handful of popcorn and three twizler twists I thought I was going to barf. We came home with an almost full tub of popcorn which we gave to the chickens.
The next day I was back on track until Victor and the boys came home. We had errands to run and we were out during the lunch hour. I was very hungry and starting to get a headache. We stopped at Wendy's and I order the 10 piece chicken with honey mustard sauce.
The rest of the day I stayed on track.
For Sunday dinner I had roasted a ham and prepared brocoli; carrots and califlower in one pot and then prepared new potatoes in another pot. I made a yummy vegetable salad with romaine lettuce; radishes; cucumbers; celery; pecans and dried cranberries.
I covered half my plate with the salad and the other half with the cooked vegetables. I had a four or five little new potatoes and a small slice of ham. Just perfect!
I did have desert - pecan pie and then I was done for the evening.
I am back on detoxing this week - to help get rid of the stuff I shouldn't have eaten. :)
When I stepped on the scale I hadn't gained any weight from the weekend of endulgence :)
Today I have been really good.
I have had about a cup of red grapes; two tangerines (from the tree); the left over cooked vegetables and the left over salad. For snack I have three celery stalks cut into a baggie along with some baby carrots and an Amborsia apple to top it off.
I havn't figured out what I am going to make for dinner - there will definitely be a salad. :)
As writers, we need to draw from our experiences and find ways to infuse who we are into the stories we tell. Julia Cameron, the author of the Artist's Way, states: "We must write from love and we must choose those to read us who read from love: the love of words. The love of naming our experience must finally be the guiding force in what we put on the page."

Sounds tasty! Good for you for showing discipline! It really pays off.
I need to think good nutrition too. Somehow it always ends up as last on the list. :(
