The Girl's Weekend was great fun. I had planned what I was having for breakfast and stuck to it. I got in some walking time in the mornings and afternoons - not counting the shopping walking. Outside of the lodging, I paid for the majority of my purchases in cash. Which was a freeing feeling. I had two large purchases, both of which are going for Xmas gifts. (even though I bought the majority for "me" gifts).
One of the girl's LOVES ice cream, so much that we had it everyday for 4 days. I allowed myself to have what I wanted -- 1 scoop in a cake cone (smallest cone possible). Friday I had Peppermint ice cream. Saturday I had Chocolate Salt Caramel ice cream. Sunday I had Peanut Butter Fudge ice cream. Monday I had an ice cream sandwich (it was purchased before I could select). Plus ice cream and pie on Saturday and Sunday nights. It is safe to say I've eaten more ice cream in the past 4 days than I have in the past 6 months. I really enjoyed it.
I kept track of everything I put in my mouth.
So why was I surprised that I actually LOST WEIGHT to the tune of .04lbs -- and yes, I am totally counting that!!!
Looking forward to continuing the Labyrinth challenge another 12 weeks, with a few tweaks.
Been a little stressed - seems that anytime I am out of the office for work or vacation, it seems to take a little while to get your brain caught back up and in the groove. Thank goodness for exercise! It's pilates tonight.
Hope everyone is having a great week!
