Halloween
Monday, I ate 4 cookies at work and was so guilt-trodden, I went to the gym and did 40 minutes on the elipitical machine, along with a full weight training session. (Yes, I am up to 40 minutes!)
Tuesday, I ate 1 cookie and licked the frosting off another one (but threw the cookie away), but also had french fries at lunch (the first in a very long time). I didn't exercise last night because Tuesday is my off day from the gym. I also had a flu shot yesterday, and my arm was a little sore. Yeah, that's it..my arm was sore.
I did not binge on halloween candy as I have in years past. I did not buy halloween candy. I did not go to the store for something and happen to pick up some candy on clearance "because it's such a good price". I had two small candy bars that were sent to me by one of my companies locations in Texas.
Last Saturday, I bought a box of Little Debbie Fudge Rounds, and I still have some left (yay, me!). Yay, because I didn't sit down and devour the box in two days.
Instead of going out to dinner and socializing tonight, I will go to the gym and repeat my workout from Monday, since I will be out of town Friday-Sunday. I am not going to give in and go to dinner at the Mexican restaurant no matter HOW BADLY I would love to have a nice margarita and some salty tostada chips, because, frankly, the past two weeks have been really bad.
I will be happy with my peanut butter on 9 grain bread sandwhich and diet ginger ale for lunch (though I might sneak in a tiny bag of vending machine doritos). Man, I'm confessing to things I haven't even eaten yet!
laterness....
