Well I couldn't resist.

Over the weekend I totally threw my diet out the window. Saturday I ate Kashi cereal, then a lean pocket at lunch, went to my brothers house and he made me a chicken breast with sauteed veggies and mac & cheese, then went to the mall and had a few pieces of a soft pretzel (major no no) and then a skinny mocha from starbucks (110 calories). THENNNNNN on sunday, I had morning coffee, for lunch 3 pieces of jets pizza and 5 buffalo wings.... that is all the calories I should have in a day. But did I stop there? Nope. I went on to eat a bag of popcorn (at night) covered in Louisiana hot sauce, diet coke and some Hershey kisses....
But hey, Bob Harper says you should have one day a week where you throw your diet out the window. So I stretched out my day into two.
Knowing this, on Monday I went back to my diet. I worked out for 60 minutes doing circuit training. I ate better and drank more water. Here is where my other temptation came in, I said I didn't want to weigh myself except for once a month. But this morning I got up and I really really wanted to see if my weekend binge killed my weight. So I made sure that the scale was in the right spot for an accurate reading, I step on and to my surprise I saw 132.9!!! Now this isn't the first time 132 showed up. It's the second. and I put the scale in a second place just to see if it was consistent and it was. I have to say I was really excited, but I also know that it probably won't stick around for long. It does mean that I just need to keep up with my eating and exercising. I am going to put the scale away, and bring it back out in one month. Hopefully the number will be below 132, but if not i'm okay with that too, because I know that I am eating healthy (for the most part) and I am working out. My clothes are fitting me nicely and that is what I am going by!
