I was not excited to weigh myself this morning because I knew I hadn't done well last week. Of course I had all the usual excuses already covered:
---
But it was St. Paddy's Day!!
I had to have at least one beer..... or 3.
That soda bread was just too good to let it go to waste. That's why I had to eat nearly the whole loaf!
But it was the first BBQ of the season!It would have been a shame to not indulge in all the
yummy food and beer that goes with it!
So I was fairly shocked when I stepped on the scale this morning and had not only NOT put back on the 3 pounds I lost the week before but actually lost an extra one! YEAH ME!!

I am attributing this victory to one diet rule that has always stuck in my head.
It is OK to cheat.... as long as you move forward and get back on your diet as quickly as possible!

Keeping this in mind I still woke up every morning ready to lose weight and ate a very healthy breakfast and lunch. I still kept my motivation and went to the gym. And I still did my best to control my portions at dinner time! So although I set myself back a little each time I did cheat....I didn't let it set me back all the way.

GOOD JOB! I didn't do so hot! I think the guacamole was my problem. I gained 2 lbs since last week. :) Although, I am getting back on my MEAN OLD TREADMILL tonight and at least 5 times a week from now on.
Turning 30 SUCKS I used to be so damn skinny!
