Its not the jeans that make me look fat — its the FAT!!!

So I left work on Friday not feeling very well (all the bran etc etc kicked in big time).  I hoped and hoped that I would feel better by 6 so that I could go to bootcamp but no such luck.  First thing at bootcamp was a 1 km run and then circuit training.   I thought maybe I could just go and do once around the track slowly and then try the circuit.  Sadly no such luck so I won’t be able to enjoy doing the circuit unless I am able to make up the class next month. I really really disliked not going to the class but I just felt too yucky to join in.  Saturday we got up early and scrubbed down the front deck — geesh it was an hour of hard work with both of us scrubbing and cleaning but it looks great and I was able to put some plants out.  I can now open the blinds.  I had some chicken, rice and peppers for lunch - then a big bag of popcorn.  We went out in the late afternoon to Costco — I was craving a starbucks frappacino so about 5:30 we stopped to indulge.  I also ordered the lemon loaf — which I am sure was about 400 calories.  Yikes just checked 440!!!! But it was my dinner.  Another hurdle (albeit calorie laden) indulge in a treat and then stop eating for the day.  Ok I had two small chicken tenders — so not a great day but not horrid either.  Sunday was another story.  We were heading out for an early dinner at my common-law-sister-in-law (does that exist??).  She is a chef and always makes such lovely food.  We BBQed steaks, ribs and chicken and then all the salads were high calorie treats.  I overate — felt awful but got back on the wagon today.  I figure one weekend will not destroy everything.  I don’t plan to spend all my weekends like that but every once in a while — won’t hurt  — too much!!!

Well on to a great week !!!!!
