so today was day five of my first portion of the 17-day diet. and i totally blew it. i was a star all day...ate my yogurt, grapefruit, and apple for breakfast. had a not-so-good salad for lunch from subway (met my lovely husband for lunch), and had delicious chicken, salad, and roasted vegetables for dinner.
it was my super amazing mother-in-law's birthday yesterday and we were out there to celebrate with her tonight. i told my husband before we went that i was going to eat some ice cream cake...and i didn't lie. i ate a delicious, extremely tasty piece of chocolate and vanilla ice cream cake. it was delicious!
that's where the "good stuff" ends. no more than 5 minutes after i ate the cake i could feel my poor stomach saying "why? why? why?" and now i realize what the heck sugar and garbage does to my body. i knew i was going to eat the cake, but i didn't know i was going to feel so crappy. so...for those of you following my blog for the diet portion only - do not waste your time eating garbage as a "treat"...it doesn't feel so good after.
on a good note though, i'm down about 8 pounds!!!! only 10 more to go!!!
tomorrow will be a new day and i am so excited to be back on track. i had a few stressful, upsetting, and disappointing days so i just wanted to relax and enjoy my evening with my in-laws. it was fantastic!
with that said, it's been a very tiring long week so this mama is hitting the hay. it's hair day tomorrow!
