The weekend of survival!

So this weekend has been better than I thought. I have splurged, but with moderation. Starting with Friday night.

We went to El Cids in Oakhurst with my parents. While everyone else enjoyed margarita's, I had water. I couldn't say no to chips, but I had 5 (and yes, I did count them). For dinner I had a grilled shrimp salad with dressing on the side: Avocado, Egg, Tomato, Cucumber. Yum! I had a small piece of cake at home, but felt satisfied.

Saturday morning I had eggs, 1 piece of toast and 2 pieces of bacon. I had a small cup of coffee (with very little cream and sugar) and a small glass of orange juice. I had planned on working out at the gym when we headed back down to Fresno, but I had to finish shopping for a baby shower gift so I took the day off. At the baby shower I did great! I had a nice portion of salad, fruit, veggies (cherry tomatoes and carrots - no dressing!) and 1 pinwheel sandwich. There was also spinach dip and different pasta and potatoe salads but I said no to anything creamy. Go Me! I ate light because I planned on enjoying a piece of cake. However, the baby shower ran WAY too late and I had to dart out before they served it. I was bummed, but felt good that I didnt waste too many calories on sweets.

In between I had a hair appointment and I took the plunge and got BANGS! Im still getting use to them, but I think I may keep them for awhile - they're starting to grow on me (no pun intended!)

Saturday night I enjoyed 3 small chicken tenderloins and 2 pieces of hawaiian bread rolls. I should have stuck with 1, but, well, I didnt :) I also had two small pieces of cake. Again, I should have had one, but because I budgeted for two (the baby shower cake), I enjoyed two small pieces and then I was done for the night.

This morning I had eggs, 1 piece of toast and a small cup of coffee. And water. I realize I don't drink enough water on the weekend because its not readily available like at work. I just have to remind myself to get that water in. Water water water!

Today I will go to the gym since I took yesterday off. The gym agenda consists of 20 minutes on the eliptical and weights. Tomorrow will be spin class - can't wait!
