Holidays Are The Worst TIme For Binging

Thursday, December 15, 2016

Whew!  I wonder if I'll ever truly squash my inner glutton.  Show me a Christmas buffet with a bunch of stuff I love and self-control just goes out the window.  I have to admit, I could have just eaten the crudites and cheese and salami and it would have been just fine.  But to pass on the good stuff ... too much of a challenge.

I am expecting the scale to go up the next couple of days as a result.  Sigh.  It's a tough time of the year to be good, but I am going to be realistic here, I'm not far enough along and not strong enough to resist ALL of the seasonal goodies.  I'll be happy if I can avoid what I can.

Breakfast:  Egg McMuffin, coffee

I would need to recycle a photo, since I was in a hurry after my workout.  It was also cold.  290 calories.

Lunch:  Oh my word.  I'm not sure I'll even be able to list it all.  2 slices of pizza, 2 party ryes.  Meatballs.  Celery sticks with ranch.  Cheese.  Breadsticks.  Brownies, haystacks, chocolate covered pretzels.  Also not pictured another haystack, a cookie of some sort and a cookie ball.



Two trips and I don't regret it.  I could have done without the second slice of pizza and maybe a few of the sweet treats but it was all delicious.  The party ryes are like crack, so are the haystacks.  I can't even begin to guess how many calories this was.  3000?  4000?

Dinner:  Nope.  Not hungry, even hours later.  I did eventually have a PBR.  144 calories.

Exercise:  35 minutes, lots of core.  Got in a planned 45 minute workout in 35 so I kept a pretty high pace.  Feels like I worked pretty hard without going overboard.  Pleased.

146.8
