The Weekend

Dieting over the weekend is sooooo hard. Saturday I went on a 3 hour bike ride (up southfork) and it was so much fun to be back out on my bike. Then I was running errands all day so it was hard to keep on top of preparing and eating healthy snacks and meals. It took quite a bit of extra effort but I managed to eat healthy meals and just skipped my snacks.

Yesterday was a totally different story. We have church at 1:00 so we slept in ate a yummy scrambled egg breakfast late, skipped lunch, hate a small snack when we got home from church (which took a while because the minivan battery died so we walked the half mile home) then went to my brother's house for dinner. Sunday dinners are a big deal to us and we love being with the family. Dinner consisted of hamburgers (off the grill...yummy), pasta salad, and fruit salad (which Kami left the yummy whipping cream off part of it for us). Rather than gorge ourselves like we normally would on such a delicious dinner we just ate normal portion sizes. Then my SIL made dutch oven peach cobbler with ice cream. Rather than suffer watching everyone else eat it I had a smaller (not too small though) portion and it was DELICIOUS!!!

So this morning I decided to do a extra weigh-in just to check the damage and I was the same weight as I was on Friday and when Todd did his check he was actually down another pound. So I guess our small cheat wasn't too bad after all.
