Lover during the week, cheater on the weekend...

Sunday, July 18, 2010

My philosophy is not the same as WW, NutraSystem or any other trendy weight loss program.  My philosophy is work HARD during the week and deny yourself your most treasured guilty pleasures and then make up for those sacrifices on the weekend.  And yes I did! 

I tried to eat somewhat right when possible but I did partake in the occasional beverage of the adult variety.  Let's see...Friday I had a light dinner (I believe I had a SmartOne frozen dinner) and a new rum with diet coke.  I have decided to shelf my favorite rum, Myers, for a lighter rum (which equals a less calorie rum) with diet coke.  T had brought me back several bottles of Don Q from Puerto Rico (I think it is sold here as well) and so I tried some of that with my DC.  It is mellow, light and quite yummy, actually.  All rums will be shelved during the week...so tonight?  Yep.  I am having a couple.  It helps me sleep and, with T out of town, I need it.

Saturday I didn't eat much during the day.  T, Tay, H and I went to our friends' house for BBQ and pool time.  They made some AMAZING chicken on the grill with baked potatoes, tomato/mozz/basil (to die for - and I usually don't say cheesy things like that) and a southwest (lowfat) coleslaw that I made from a new recipe.  OMG it was all so yummy...and, yep...you guessed it...I washed it down with some brews!  Nope, not the lite crap that isn't really beer.  A good ol' Dos Equis Amber!  Or 5.

Today has been my cheese fest.  I say that but I don't feel like I have had THAT much cheese.  I did have a couple of cheese and cheddars.  I did make ramen noodles with plain tomato sauce...very low in fat...and had it for lunch and dinner.  I missed breakfast today.   No water at all...just iced tea and then rolled into my rum (light rum) and diet coke.

Tomorrow?  Cold turkey again!  Back to my strict eating, non-drinking and extreme workouts!  CANNOT wait!  I will be laying my clothes out tonight so that I am ready when the nugget wakes up.  I am finding myself looking forward to my workouts...my ALONE time...my time to hurt myself!  HA!

Those who are checking this out...let's do our daily discussions again.  I enjoy our time together!  ;)  Check it out on FB now!  And please leave me some love!  All encouragement is so helpful!!

You can do it!! I think the "weekends off" thing might really work. It's the day after day that makes most people fall of the diet in the first place. I am going to start my diet back up tomorrow. I have to...no more excuses.

This is what I do- cheat on the weekends- but I want to switch it up and give myself a cheat day DURING the week when I'm less likely to do as bad as I would Sat AND Sun. I haven't switched it up yet but I'm going to...
