caged liberty's Journal, 30 June 2008

Just returned from a vacation. I didnt go anywhere but I did have a break from my dieting. It was Son still feels like its broken legs birthday on Friday and though we didnt have a party, he had a friend come around so I ordered pizza. I didnt have to and my son didnt care if I partook of his pizza..but I thought I might as well join the nonparty anyway.

Discovered that pizza doesnt do it for me anymore. Stromboli was another issue though. Took a couple of slices of that and enjoyed it. Gained a pound the next day (141.8lb).

We had decided to have a celebatory meal on Saturday to make up for not being able to celebrate. However, there was a bit of a problem because Son still feels like its broken leg was in a lot of pain and his foot was still swollen so he didnt want to go out.

Still went out to Olive Garden for Italian food. I felt I made good choices choosing eggplant parmigiana instead of pasta. Had the salad first but still took some garlic bread and a bit of daughters 4 cheese ravioli.

Sunday I ate the left overs from the night before.

Total weight gain upto day..1lb. Not bad at all! Back to diet today and hopefully will knock the numbers back down by the end of this week.

well, hopefully that 1 pound gain is only from the sodium in that food. Still sounds like you had a good weekend and was able to splurge with alot of types of food! Now your mind will be clear for dieting days ahead!

I had a cheat day this weekend too. I think we need those little breaks from dieting just to keep our sanity! Olive Garden!! I don't know how you did it staying away from pasta! Good for you! :)

Eating vacations are the best kind :D You are back on track today so that is the important thing.

Sounds like a good weekend. You made good choices and should not regret anything! Part of going through all of this is learning that it is okay to eat certain things once in a while and then just get right back on track. You'll 're-lose' that pound in no time!!

Strombolis & Pasta, 1 lb gain; Vacations w/o having to take a flight anywhere: PRICELESS!!

You're so close to goal, you can afford to treat yourself as long as you get back to it. Can't wait until I can do the same. I really miss pizza, we used to have it about once a week. It's been at least 3 months, too bad you didn't enjoy it but, at least you did enjoy the stromboli!

Ohhhhhhh cl.... non parties sound like FUN so they do.. I like your style. Well you did rediculously well for an English Major on holiday... just one pound!!! and judging by the shape of your graph you will have absolutely NO problem in shifting that.. (have you been watching the tennis whilst indulging in the traditional strawberries and cream? you have a brit in the quarter finals!!!)..later...

Lord in the heavens above..a Brit in the quarter finals of Wimbledon??? Do we have another Fred Perry in the making??

Ahhh... you Poms know suffering. Great match, but don't think he will go through. Was really exciting though.

LOL changeup...I think my grandchildren might be lucky enough to see a Brit actually get to a final in Wimbledon. How ironic that the home of Tennis cant find a homebred champion!!! Boy do we know suffering..we didnt learn when we got kicked out of America, we just plonked our butts in Africa...got kicked out...plonked ourselves in India...got kicked out...trying for almost a century to plonk our butts in Wimbledon..still getting kicked out!!!!!

the olive garden has whole wheat pasta...i have had it and it is pretty good...the first ingred is whole wheat flour and that is to be avoided but as a sub it wasn't bad

thanks for the tip veggies. I am on Atkins so even wholewheat is out but I do buy wholewheat pasta for my kids at home. Surprisingly, they cant always tell (I do get caught out sometimes!. Apparently, there are also low carb pasta products though I havent come across any in my town yet.

(Have they lost AGAIN????-Do we have ANY Brits to be bloody proud of????)In defence though, Australia are totally unbeatable in cricket so any poor soul coming in front of them is bound to have a thrashing, Brit on not!!
