This weekend was a complete wash and undid so much of my hard work during the week. It started on Friday when my boyfriend surprised me with Indian -- I had been doing so well that day and my numbers all week were pretty low. On Saturday I was set to eat out with my family and had a tiny breakfast so I'd have room to eat with them and not go over - only to have it canceled. This would have been a good thing, but between exercising and other easter preparations I didn't eat at all and ended up giving in to fast food tempation and having too much later on when we were driving to his parents. Follow that up with Easter dinner which included potato salad (home made so I am sure it had tons of mayo), sweet potato casserole (with brown sugar), devild eggs (more mayo), pie, cupcakes, peach cobbler, sugar cookies, reeses peanut butter cups, cheese and crackers, and that was just the vegetarian options.
Then today was left over day which I know I should have said no to, or limited, but it's the BFs family I want to make a good impression.
I feel like a bloated gross mess. My stomach feels angry, by brain feels foggy and I hate myself for these decisions right now.
Tomorrow I am doing a fruit and juice fast - not really a fast, because I'm going to eat. I really need to clean all this crap out of my system. Then, I'll go back to my baby steps. I admit that I wasn't following them this weekend. But they were working and I'll be back at them again in the morning. I'm also setting the alarm extra early to get in a longer workout, I may even head to the gym tomorrow instead of my normal workout so I can get in some running - the weather isn't cooperating, again.
Before I left for Easter I had hit 120.5 and I tried on the clothes I want to wear this summer. I was so close on three pairs of pants - They basically fit, but the pockets flaired out slightly because they were pulling across the hips. But an inch or so more - just a few pounds from where I was on Friday - and they'll fit. Even the bikini I want to take with me to Jamaica was looking better.
So, I know I can get there. It's just a matter of stopping these binges. I know my baby steps will work too. It is just a matter of planning them and following them.

I so know how you feel.. Holidays are really nice but I dont understand why it is always soo much food in the picture..
Just look at it this way.. It's over now and you can get back to your baby steps and things will be better soon.
And a cleanse is a good idea. Just getting rid of all the shit and feel less bloated. Doing a detox atm and eventhough I started yesterday I can really feel it on my body.
GL hon. It will get easier as soon as you get your planning done.
