On Monday, I left the house with my kids to go shopping for wedding clothes and shoes with my sister who's getting married in December. I knew I should have brought a snack with me so I wouldn't feel so hungry while we shopped but I was such in a rush to get out of the house I forgot to get something.
Well, that was a big mistake becuase we went shopping right next to a buffet place where my sister happened to be considering as the place she wants to hold her rehearsel dinner. We went to go check it out to see if the place would be good. The waft of buffet food just hit me as we walked through the door. I was hooked. Two things were bad: the price and the all-you-can-eat.
I gave in and paid the price with my wallet and my waist. Not only did I eat more than I should have, I wasn't even able to work out that day because we came back home so late. The only good thing that I was happy about was that I started with a salad and added vegetables with every plate (except dessert). It wasn't good enough and now any weight that I might have lost is gone.
I did a 1 hour workout the next day but weighing myself this morning showed I gained .3 pounds which is not bad considering. It could have been a lot worst. I just feel bad that I gave in. I need to just stay away from the buffet because my will power is not strong enough to resist the tempation.
With that said, moving on and going to continue to try and lose as much weight possible before the final weigh-in for this round on Saturday. I know I won't be able to lose 7 pounds in just a couple of days but I will try to at least lose that .3 pounds and hopefully more.
