Tough Times
Posted on August 24th, 2008 in choices |
I can’t seem to stay off the scale, and I guess as long as I don’t let it affect my follow through with the program I’m not going to worry about it.
I lost my perfect CE record tonight. We went out for my wife’s birthday to a mexican restaurant. Rice and corn tortillas were involved. As was a large cone from Dairy Queen. But on the bright side I’m sure it was better for me than my usual large Blizzard. I’m guessing it was about half the calories and carb, so good for me I think.
But I do feel guilty about it. I need to learn to just enjoy the times when I cheat and get back on the horse the next day. I think 3 hours out of 21 days is actually a very good ratio. It was tasty and now it’s just time to buckle down again, get back to work, and do it.

Don’t think cheat - think Carb re-load meal. It may actually help you lose more weight and get stronger.

Danny,
That is why you have cheats. That is what keeps us going! Mexican food is no better way to cheat…that is my favorite… and Dairy Queen, bet you would be surprised at how few calories that cone had. Hopefully you had a wonderful time celebrating with your wife and now you are back at it!
