Fight the temptations...

Have I mentioned that I love ice cream? I LOVE ice cream. I could eat it every day...and sometimes I do. But lately, you would be amazed by my will power! I was even able to turn down two offers today from my husband for a mocha frappachino...mmmm....one of my favorites. But I did it. I said no. I fought the temptation. It was horrible. I know. I know. It will be good for me. It has a lot of calories and sugar...yada, yada, yada.

I have to be honest. I make no promises when it comes to the weekend. I can do it all week long, make good food choices, get lots of exercise, stay on a good routine...but as soon as Friday night comes, it's all out the window for me. I make terrible food choices. I want dessert, mostly ice cream. We eat out all the time. And I get very little exercise (unless somebody awesome is teaching Turbo on Saturday morning). It's really easy for me to get through the week healthily. Why? Oh why, can't I make good choices on the weekend? I actually already kind of know the answer to that question.
1. I use the weekend as my reward. "If I can just make it until Saturday, then I can ________." Bad.
2. We have no schedule on the weekend. I eat at crazy times, and we're usually not at home.  Bad.
3. We eat out a lot on the weekend. We're not usually at home. So, we're grabbing something on the way somewhere or just taking the time to eat out while we're already out and about. Kind of bad.

You'll see my shame when you get to Saturday's food and exercise. Hmpf.

Today was not so good...and tomorrow's not looking too hot either...It is Bele Chere weekend after all. And that usually results in a funnel cake. End of story. It's practically the law. I might try to fight the temptation. But I doubt it.
