That is the best way I can describe my eating this weekend!
We've been celebrating Jo's 30th birthday, and the diet has gone out of the window in favour of spending time with friends and marking a waypoint in our lives. And that is absolutely fine .... as long as the bad eating stops there and doesn't continue into the rest of my week.
I didn't post my weigh in on Friday because I stayed the same. Although I saw a new low weight in the early part of last week, I bounced back up: this is the result of my good-during-the-week-bad-during-the-weekend eating I tend to resort to. And last week wasn't even a terrible weekend.
I do need to get this a bit more under control. I tried popping my own corn tonight and it actually turned out really well - it's nice to eat it and know exactly what's gone into it from start to finish. However, I did make the mistake of not measuring out the portion first, and at the bottom of the bowl, I found myself licking the surplus sugar / cinnamon combo off my fingers when I realised I was just eating sugar for the sake of it. I don't need it, and I want to lose weight more ... I need to remember that more often.
Anyway - the cake, karting and one-off drinking fest of this weekend is over now - onwards with some decent eating and exercise for the week!
I made a New Year's resolution that 2009 would be the year I would finally get healthy ... with the aim of losing 70lbs. That journey was the start of changing many things in my life for the better ... and I'm still on the journey!

Home made popcorn is fab - I love it with a little bit of finely grated Parmesan.
Have fun getting back on track! A naughty weekend is entirely necessary once in a while as long as you get that line drawn straightaway - which it sounds like you have.
