The the Good news, the Bad news and the Good news

Posted by zazu on 12th July 2007

Well the good news is that even after some of the bad choices I made last week, the weight loss Gods decided to smile on me and I still lost .7 lbs. I was sure I was going to see a gain so that was more than I could have asked for.

The bad news is that yesterday turned into an out-of-control eating fest. We had a retreat for work that was FILLED with food, buffet style. I started out the morning with one of those huge bagels with regular cream cheese (no FF available), then croissant club sandwiches and potato salad for lunch. Our boss owns a restaurant so he brought in a collection of *awesome* desserts which I sampled. I thought I was being moderate by only having a 1/2 piece of cake and the smallest brownie. I was “guess”timating points the whole day. SO when I got home and calculated points I was shocked how many I’d eaten. Then we went to the Harry Potter movie (yay) where I had a little bit of popcorn, french fries and a turkey sandwich.. . Close to 50 points for the whole day. Thank goodness for flex points. Now I need to do better the rest of the week.

And the other good news is that I did get in my exercise yesterday - a 90 minutes of walking.
