A True Test of Will

It is so hard over holiday weekends.  Not only is it Memorial Day tomorrow, but my birthday the following day. 

So being realistic I do not want to gain.  If I can just stay the same weight that will be good.

Tonight some of my family came over for a bbq.  We did really good though as we had none of the usual pasta salads and only had a green salad with it and no desserts.  So we didn’t do so bad.  I should have had more water though.  My goodness we had a fun party though!  Teagan and Sammi swam in the pools in the back and afterwards the adults played cards.  It was seriously a blast!

So tomorrow Adam’s family is having a Memorial Day luncheon and celebrating my birthday.  I’m pretty sure I’m getting a carrot cake for my birthday.  So that will definitely be my cheat meal.  Adam says I should take all day for my birthday but I think that is a bad idea.  So here is what I think will help:

·       I will continue to follow diet all other meals on Monday & Tuesday

·       On my birthday we are going to go to the Zoo and maybe swimming because these are really active!  (The zoo has a lot of hills now that I love/hate!)

·       I will also continue to exercise

·       I will be perfect the rest of the week

Let’s hope it works!
