Brownies Are My Downfall

Last WI: 212.4/At Home WI: 214.0

MONDAY

Another Monday. I hate Mondays. But I know most people do. This weekend was nice in terms of social interaction, but not so nice food-wise. Friday was ok. I agreed to work as a dealer at a casino show in Atlanta. I did really well food-wise all day and ended the day just 2 points over my target, having gotten in all the healthy 8's. Saturday was a different story. I slept in because I was so tired from working the night before, and had a quick brunch about 11:00 before heading over to Erik's new house to help clean for an upcoming open house. His New House is a new construction house he built in Tyrone with plan of selling it pretty quickly. Sort of a "flip it" idea. Well, the housing market plummeted over the last year and he hasn't been able to sell it like he hoped. Now we need to spruce it up a bit for the summer - prime selling season.

Anyway, we went over there and I probably earned a couple AP's by scrubbing bathrooms, floors and weeding the flowers. Then we went to lunch at Wings 'n Things. Bad move. I had wings and fried mushrooms and fries. No beer fortunately because we had Daniel and the neighbor kid with us, but definitely too many calories.

Saturday night I went over to a friends house to deal a poker game for him. It was a great success financially (they tipped very well). I ended up having 4 beers while I was there, which would have been ok. I was a bit over for the day, but not horribly. Unfortunately though, the game went till after midnight and I was starving by the time I got out of there. I'd had Wings 'n Things at about 3:00 and nothing since. Poor planning! So a midnight Taco Bell run it was. BAD!!

Sunday was supposed to be the day I recovered - ate well - exercised. All was going smoothly till Erik pulled out a pan of fresh brownies he'd made for Daniel (and us). I had one, and it was all down hill from there. Erik took Daniel back to his Mother's house at about 5:00 and I just fell into a sugar induced coma. Way too many brownies were consumed. No exercise was had. Bad girl!

So, here I am. Another Monday. Another week of trying to make up for my bad weekend activities WW-wise. I have no flex points left, and am in the hole. I didn't really tally yesterday's indulgence since I didn't look at the box of brownies before Erik took out the trash. I know it was bad though. Nothing to do now, but be good the rest of the week, get in the water and exercise and hope for the best on Thursday.

Today I'm going to try to get in some of those AP's. We have our Monday night poker league at my house tonight so that should help. I'm leaving here shortly to hit the grocery store on the way home. Then I plan to walk/run at least 3 miles before people start showing up around 6:30. It'll be cutting it close, but I need this to feel better about myself!

Here's Hoping!
