Weigh In Wednesday #2, yes I know it is now Thursday

So week 2, dreaded week 2!  My goal for the past week was to be more on target with my food intake.

Wed-Friday were pretty good, I did have Chipotle for dinner Friday which was still in my allowable calorie range but Friday night I found myself grazing and drinking beer.

Saturday was not great either, because my partner was displaying his Star Trek collection at the museum we didn’t get to eat anything until 5:30pm.  At that point I was ravenous. We ate at Jason’s deli which has an amazing Chicken Salad wrap that is around 350 calories add the fruit and dip that comes along with it for another 250 calories and you have a tasty dieters meal that comes in at a near perfect 600 calories.

Jason’s Deli Savy Chicken Salad Wrap. Wrap=350 calories Fruit with yougurt honey dip 250 calories.

That really wasn’t enough considering how hungry I was. I had 2 servings of the free ice cream, probably another 5-600 calories. Things are starting to go south here. 600 calories of sugar, boo!

Afterwards we went to our usual Saturday night boardgame meetup at Krystal’s.  After a few hours of gaming I was hungry again, and my sweet tooth was rearing its ugly head.  A double order of Sweet bites, basically deep fried dough rolled in cinnamon and sugar.  Another 800 calories there. Really junky and bad!

So in total I had about 2000 calories which is ok now and then but most of those calories were junk food so I was unhappy about that.

Sunday was just ok, I ate BBQ and got veggie sides so it was low carb but who knows when it comes to calories. Monday and Tuesday were really good, I ate healthy choice lunches at home and 6″ low calorie Subway Subs for dinner at work.

So on Wednesday I stepped on the scale and found myself down another 1.2lbs, that was great. But I have mixed feelings overall about how the weekend went.  It always seems like this is the case, I can do really good during the week and then the weekend is just bad all over.  I am happy I had a loss, and it is once again my goal this week to focus more and try to stay on plan on the weekend as well as during the week. I am hopeful for at least another 1 pound loss this week.

On the exercise front I have ordered a new armband for my cellphone since my old ones doesn’t fit my new phone so I can start running in the morning at least a few times a week.  I plan on at least doing the Midnight Fun Run 5k in the springtime that I have run the past 3 years.

I hope you are doing well with whatever goals you are working to achieve, you only fail if you don’t try!
