Mother's Day Weekend Was a Weight Loss Disaster!
I'd like to apologise for not posting in a week. There just don't seem to be enough hours in the day sometimes. I won't even try to make any excuses. Mother's day weekend was a lot of fun but not good for my weight loss program. The celebration started early with a Friday night cookout at our neighbors house. Lots of wonderfully fattening food, 12 beers, and my share of a bottle of tequila, left me with a terrible hang over Saturday.
I ended up laying around the house all day asking myself why in the world I drank all of that alcohol. So Saturday was a total wash out. Sunday, I made the wife breakfast in bed, complete with pancakes, bacon, and a cheese omelet. Of course, I ate my fair share of it. The rest of the day was filled with more eating and a big chocolate cake to boot. I did manage to squeeze in 200 sit ups mostly out of guilt.
Monday morning I stepped on the scales and had gained almost 5 pounds. I was 321 even.
Needless to say I was seriously regretting my fun, lethargic weekend. All this week I have doubled my efforts and have been working hard with the exercise. I rode the bike 2 times every day and did at least 300 sit ups every day. I did the "Yoga For Weight loss" on Monday and Wednesday. Thankfully, my efforts have payed off. I lost all of the extra I had gained and managed to to surpass my mark from last Thursday morning.
Today's official weigh in: 315.4 lbs. That's 3.6 lbs for the month and 34.6 lbs for the year.
I should be back on schedule with things and will be able to continue making my daily posts again.
