Weekly Weigh-In: Fun Times At Open Houses Hurt Weight Loss!!!

Make sure to take a look at My Weight Loss Blog Directory!!!

I have changed my Weigh-In day to Tuesdays for the summer.  It seems like I have so many things going on and it just works better.  I actually think Friday might be better, to weigh before weekends, but then I just might overeat on weekends thinking I have time to catch back up.  So I will stay with Tuesdays for a while.

I am still recovering from the graduation cake.  It has set me back a little.  I am not going to eat any more sugar!! I'm not!!  

I have still been attending open houses for all my son's friends.  There were 3 on Saturday, along with graduation, and eating out with my kids.  There were 10 on Sunday.   I have one more weekend of those.  There won't be near as many.  There is nothing like partying for four weeks in a row to hurt your weight loss.  And no, it's not okay.  I have to learn to deal with life, whatever that brings.   I have not eaten any more cake or desserts.  I have been eating some things that probably contain too much salt.  I really don't think I have been overdoing though.  It's just the food isn't always the healthiest.

One open house had a sundae bar, I didn't have any.  Everyone was raving about it.  I just know that after the week before and eating the cake I wasn't even going to look at it.  

I have been researching the effects of sugar.  I am hoping my brain will finally take over and just realize that it might taste good for a few minutes, but in the long run I will feel much worse.  Is instant gratification enough to eat something?  I have to think about the aftereffects and my long term health!!
