WORKOUT: Treadmill @ 4mph for 45min, varying high inclines (the sore "girls" could not take jogging or the elliptical!)
TOTALS: 1268cal, 42g fat, 122g carb, 114g protein, 22g fiber
WEIGHT: 140
I was hoping I'd never see that awful number again, but looking back on my week of poor food choices (combined with TOM) I am glad it's not higher than that!!!! It's a 2lb gain from last week. I'm guessing it's 1lb from TOM, 1lb from being naughty and I bet it'll be gone soon.
I actually felt human yesterday (except the soreness).
I had energy ALL DAY!!!
I already told DH we are NOT going out tonight. I am going to go to the gym for cardio after my ex picks up the kids (so is DH, so that helps me get going) and I am going to make lemon chicken and we are going to watch a movie. Tomorrow we are going to get our new vacuum cleaner, then meet friends at Outback for Happy Hour. I'm already planning on 4 martinis and grilled shrimp to eat. I am extra motivated to be good this weekend, I've gotten all the "badness" out of my system for a while!
I haven't decided what to do about the weigh-in (before trip vs stay w/regular schedule). I guess I'll see how I feel about it on Tue and take it from there...
I got these new All Bran Multigrain crackers and they are really good! It's 130cal and 5g fiber per serving, but I've noticed when I eat them with lunch instead of my usual soy crisps that I crave snacks more than usual. So even though I love them, I'm not going to buy them anymore. I don't need any help in the craving department!

Tracey, I am confused too, welcome to a little preview of the mental torture I constantly put myself through!!!
Tracy, you are right, I ate practically nothing but fruit! Don't forget the pumpkin ice cream, pumpkin is a veggie, right?
Anna, you hit it right on the head with the "getting ticked off then blowing it on the trip" scenario! I can totally see myself doing that.
One good thing about traveling with others is that I am SUPER self-conscious about eating like a pig in front of colleagues so I can usually behave. But on the plane, when it's just me and the flight attendant, WATCH OUT!! I think I single-handedly ate a whole wheel of brie on one flight...
Amy, DH knows he would have been in some serious trouble if he'd gotten me a whole box of chocolate! He actually ate 2 of them, I had the other 2, plus DD's coconut one (she hates coconut) and one the skinny minny from work gave me... I like your idea of playing it by ear with the scale. I actually have to be good this weekend because my dressy black pants (that I only wear when I travel to Europe) didn't fit too well last time I went and I don't want a repeat performance!!!
