Week 22 update

Boy oh boy did I mess up this week. I gained 3.6 pounds. So the downward spiral starts with my car getting broken into. Needless to say I did not go to the gym that day. Wed was a pre-Thanksgiving diner at Outback steakhouse. I didn't do too bad with the meal. But the appetizers did me in. Thanksgiving was even worse. I had 2, that's right TWO whole plates of food. And a very upset stomach for a couple of days afterwards. Then I had my high school reunion where I had too much to eat again as well as a few alcoholic drinks. Add all that over eating to no trips to the gym to do weights and my period starting and you get 3.6 pounds gained. So what have I learned this week? 1. Overeating is so not worth it. My tummy was very upset after eating as much as I did on Thanksgiving. 2. I need to watch the sweets. They are still a very real temptation.
So I decided to go to the gym tonight. And I feel much better for having done it.
