True Confessions

One of my girlfriends had an extra ticket to the Madonna concert last night. We started the night at a nice little Cuban restaurant and I was feeling sassy so I ordered a drink. The women I was out with are accomplished drinkers. So when they ordered drink number 2 and 3, I followed suit. I was feeling fine since we had eaten dinner with the drinks and they weren't terribly strong.

Then we moved on to a swanky new bar in the area. Here is where I got into trouble. The fact that I haven't had much alcohol since I started dieting coupled with the fact that this bar makes their drinks very strong, and then add in the fact that the drink cost $10 so I couldn't just leave it, made for my undoing.

Right at the best part of the concert, I lost my dinner and all the expensive drinks in the ladies room. I felt a bit better and a whole lot more sober. I was thinking, "I guess I don't need to enter any of that into FatSecret." But once I got home my stomach was still unhappy with me so at 2 am in the morning, I was combing the house for carbs. I had my husband's left over prime rib sandwich, some cheez-its, and granola with dried cranberries.

Needless to say, the weigh in at the weight loss center didn't go so well but they went easy on me. Time to face the consequences of poor choices. I feel like it's taking me forever to say goodbye to the 230's. My clothes are still fitting me well, though.

I need to get my act together before the holidays.

How was Madonna? I am sorry you had to "leave" your dinner behind, but glad you are able to see better days ahead!

Wow. You really gave us honesty (and that's one of the reasons we love you!). I am right there with you on the motivations, the tempations, the indulgences and poor choices. But - who cares? Hopefully Madonna rocked it, you had a ball with the ladies and you've got a new day tomorrow! You are going to laugh the 230s away in no time, and probably a little OVER indulgence was just the sobering (pun intended) reminder that we all gotta get back on track. I just checked my weigh-ins. I've pretty much lost NO weight in a month. That totally and thoroughly sucks. But we're in this together! We'll get there!

Madonna did not disappoint. I had never seen one of her concerts and I thought it was great. I hope I can be even half as fit and flexible as her. Not to mention the stamina she must have to run through all of that content singing (and dancing for most of it). She got into hot water when she started talking about politics, especially since Phoenix is predominantly republican. But she smoothed things over with the crowd in short order. My friend and I had great seats. All in all, it was a great time. Today I am on track. Hoping the scale will agree tomorrow.
