Notes:
-THIS is the way to eat food when you're having a party. Normally I could have polished off half to a whole bag of chips. Also, I would have filled my glass completely with ice cream, then poured root beer around it. Tonight I measured a serving size, and had only that. I had enough, it was yummy and it was not making me feel deprived at all. I had three chips--I didn't have to have them, but I wanted the taste. At my third chip I realized I was having more than just a taste, so I checked to see if I got my taste and if I was hungry, and I didn't have any more. Wow, with all the candy and ice cream and other treat we could have had, I think this was plenty and it felt like what normal people would eat. I have this feeling of wanting all this food this weekend-wanting to stuff myself silly because 'we never get to hang out' but I didn't. Our guests didn't seem to mind what we had so I'm satisfied both ways. :)
-Okay, so even though my food was good, I must say I should have exercised today. Our plans would have allowed for it, but it would have been rushed. I think with this whole healthy lifestyle/balance thing, I at least held up a good portion of control with my meals, and because 'we never get to hang out' I decided it was okay to pass for this. I'd rather be at ease and enjoy my time with our friends instead of rushing to fit everything in because it is the exception. I don't mind if I don't lose another 4 pounds this week because that is not my ultimate goal. I gave myself much more freedom today than I have the last 11 days, but I think once in 11 days is a step up from everyday. 'And I'm going to bed after a wonderful visit, and a pedicure, so I can't complain! It's been a good couple of days.
