Weekend Update

by Paul | Aug 30, 2010 | Thoughts | 0 comments

I need to not delay a day or two before posting my food, otherwise I might lose track of exactly what I ate and not have exact counts for the day – like I did this weekend.

Overall, I it was a mixed bag. Friday I was in a terrible mood and succumbed to a cheeseburger and fries at the local deli, but otherwise was on point with my eating. Saturday I did well, even resisting my typical habit of eating poorly when going out (the sips from Esther’s chocolate raspberry martini weren’t significant enough to count), but the Mojito afterward certainly wasn’t on the diet. Sunday I did well save for some fig newtons I munched on at Dad’s while working on some computer stuff.

The mojito and the burger are both acceptable in my mind – I’m not always going to eat great & sometimes you need to kick back with a drink – but the fig newtons (which calorie wise were the least of my transgressions) bother me because I snacked on them absent-mindedly. I’d probably had 3 or 4 of them before I realized I’d been taking in calories.

Still, considering I felt like an emotional wreck on Friday and had to resist the urge to just go nuts on cupcakes and cookies that were available here in the office, I’m okay with the way things played out.
