Yesterday was my daughter's 4th birthday. So, we had a party for her that consisted of pizza, cake and ice cream. We also had lots of watermelon and mixed fruit, and being from Wisconsin no party is complete without Cheese Curds- plain and dill.
Before the party started I dipped into the watermelon thinking, "At least I'm making a healthy choice!"- and then my husband walks in with like 7 or 8 boxes of Domino's Pizza (if you remember from my previous blog, pizza is one of my downfalls). I told myself that I am going to only eat one slice and then fill up on fruit. That was a great intention, however with all of my talking and engaging with others, I forgot what I was doing and before I knew it I had eaten 3 slices of pizza! After I realize what I did I was horrified! I did have a small piece of cake and about 1/2 scoop of ice cream too.
Last night my husband had to work so I invited my friend and her two kids over for a few movies. My intention was to grill a chicken breast and some veggies, but then the voices in my head told me to just hit the drive through for one last grease ridden meal- and I caved! On the way back from Family Video I ran through the drive through and ordered a grilled chicken sandwich meal (large size even). Figured I might as well finish the day the way that it had started! This was the first McDonalds (fast food in general) that I have had in quite some time. Let me tell you, my body has always "thrived" on grease- or so I thought. I got so sick and couldn't really enjoy my movie! I think that in some weird way I needed that to happen. If it didn't, I would always be craving McDonalds, but since my little 'splurge' I don't think I'll be even remotely wanting anything from there again. I'll stick to my healthy meals!
So, my punishment for having a bad eating day yesterday is that I got up and walked 2 1/2 miles and I am going to do a Yoga Booty Ballet - Latin Flavor dvd AND I am going to do all of the exercises that we did in the gym at boot camp (well, the ones that I remember anyway).
I'll post again later tonight with my exercise journal.

I think one day treating yourself is okay! You'll get right back on track and you'll be good!
