The weekend....

Friday was a funny day. I got up earlier to make sure I have enough time to make dd's lunch for school, but then I forgot my own. I grabbed two small packets of crackers (6 per packet) on the way out of the house...

Meals:

  • Breakfast: crackers with fish paste
  • Morning snack: apple
  • Lunch: 12 Crackers
  • Afternoon snack: Chocolate and cheese straws with coke!!! How horrible:-(
  • Supper: KFC wrap and 1 thigh. I also had a glass of coke
  • Evening snack: nothing
I bow my head in shame...:-(

Saturday:

Got up bright and early and had a really good time until after supper when I caved to my cravings.

Meals:
  • Breakfast: Crackers with fish paste
  • Morning snack: low fat chocolate milk
  • Lunch: Cheese straws and watermelon - wasn't hungry
  • Afternoon snack: Nothing
  • Supper: roast chicken with roast veggies
  • Evening snack: potato chips, popcorn, chocolate and coke - I really fell off the wagon hard!
Sunday:

Planned to go to the gym and eat well, but then a friend phoned and invited us to lunch:-( Not a good idea...

Meals:
  • Breakfast: crackers with fish paste (really love this)
  • Morning snack: finished a packet of potato chips dd started
  • Lunch: shrimp with fries and a greek salad
  • Afternoon snack: chocolate wavers
  • Supper: left over roast chicken and veggies
  • Evening snack: 2 lollipops
The highlight of sunday was probably the fact that I did another workout. I found a pilates workout in a magazine and did it. Ha! I was puffing away after 5 minutes and pilates is more stretching than cardio... just shows what a shape I am in:-(

So, overall - a HORRIBLE weekend for my diet

If I continue this way, I will end the year higher than I started it, so I really need to work on my weekend-eating.

Goals:

  • Exercise twice a week for 20 minutes - DONE
  • No snacking in-between meals and snacks - NOT DONE for about 4 out of 7 days;-(
  • Drink at least 6 glasses of water a day - DONE
  • Allow myself 1 coke a week - had much more- NOT DONE
  • Eat at least 5 fruit/veggies per day - DONE
  • Track what I eat daily - even weekends - NOT DONE. Did fine until friday, but didn't track saturday and sunday.
  • Only have take-out twice a month. DONE. Had once so far.
  • Eat fish 3 times a week - DONE.
I would like to add another goal: drink one cup of green tea a day!

    I am working on my weekend eating too. You are doing great with the majority of your goals. I want to drink more green tea too. I bought some decaf and will have a cup tonight.
