Weekends are very difficult for me I always gain a pound or 2; I hate it and feel guilty. But how do you balance life and diet? When your hubby wants to have a couple of beers with you do you just say no? When you are invited to a birthday party do you not eat the cake? When super bowl is on do you just nibble on celery sticks? Sometimes our bodies are not fair. Why can my friend have beer and Big Macs and cookies and not gain an ounce? She’s a size 2…ugh. I can not even smell a Big Mac without putting on 5 pounds!

So, here I sit, it’s Sunday, back on my eating plan, feeling disgusted that I have to get off the 1.5 pound that I gained just from Friday and Saturdays events to get back on the losing end…sigh. I am not mad at the events I had a great times. I am frustrated as to why I can’t have my cake and eat too and just be fine when I hop on the scale. Why does my body hold on to food and calories turn it into fat to store it way just incase there is some famine or something…I just want to scream… YOU WILL NOT STARVE…LET IT GO! 

For Super Bowl goodies we had a bunch of cut up veggies with dip, fresh fruit with dip, pretzels, popcorn. Instead of our traditional pizza we got 100 calorie English muffins and topped those with pizza stuff. Saved about 80 calories per piece and it was good!

Well, I better get busy and get some things done around here before I go to sleep.

Take care,
