Friday night's "splurge" dinner was terrific - worth every calorie but I didn't really splurge. I was pretty controlled with what I ate and drank and left food. I definitely did not overeat and was really pleased with the night.
Yesterday, I expected to have even more control with my food at our neighbors house but that ended up being the meal that I just totally blew it. Way too much wine and dessert.
Dh and I were going to go out to dinner tonight but we cancelled - neither of us were in the mood and I certainly don't need the calories.
My plan is to have 1200 calories days between now and Thursday and even Thursday night should be semi-reasonable as I'm doing the cooking and making bouliabaisse (sp ?) I do not want to start the new year with more weight to lose.
Out of our beliefs are born deeds; out of our deeds we form habits; out of our habits grows our character; and on our character we build our destiny.
Must have been bad party karma in the air last night. DH and I went to an open house where we knew only the hosts. As has been my (bad) habit at such social events, I nibbled to cover up the fact that I had nothing to say to anyone. Food was good but not that good. Doing better today (one small cup of hot chocolate after church notwithstanding -- but I was celebrating Wise Man #2's epic performance in the Christmas pageant. )
