So I behaved myself today, and did not give in to my (strong!) desire for a large plate of seasoned french fries - more than anything else because I couldn't remember which restaurant does the REALLY good ones! (TGI Friday's, as it happens... I remembered too late!)
However, having had a very low cal count day (banana nut cheerios & a glass of milk for breakfast, and a small bacon & egg roll for lunch), I kinda lost it at the church picnic this evening... A hamburger (no bun), a hot dog (with bun), one slice of cheese, a few doritos, but the fruity "salads" (little wonder Americans are so much heavier than the rest of the world when a "salad" is jello, whipped cream, grated cheese, and mini marshmallows!), the cake, the brownies, the banana bread (baked by mom!).... I gave in and ate too much! Actually, I didn't give in: it was a conscious decision before I got to the picnic that I was going to enjoy the food and not worry about the diet for one night. And that was exactly what I did - especially when my friend Anna offered me the icing from the slice of cake she took, and icing is a REALLY big weakness of mine... I can buy the containers of Duncan Hines icing and eat the whole thing in one or two sittings if I'm not careful! Hmm... Little wonder I need to lose weight!
Tomorrow, resolve returns and I will be back on track - and back at work, which means back to getting my exercise running up & down & round that 10,000 sq.ft. store!
