Hello there! My apologies for not writing the past few days. I've been all over the place and just didn't get around to it. Because of that, I will not be able to be quite as detailed as I normally would like to be, but I will do my best.
First of all, I will open with letting you know that I did not do all that great this past weekend. I made some pretty poor choices in terms of what i actually ate. The good news is that I didn't exactly eat a whole lot, it's just that when I did eat, it was generally not good stuff. Here we go. . . . . . .
FRIDAY - AUGUST 21, 2015
Today, I was doing really well. Band camp week 1 was over and I was excited for the 4 day weekend. I don't remember, but I think my breakfast was probably a bagel thin with butter and some Trop 50 OJ. Lunch was light - maybe a cold cut sandwich. I'm not sure, but it was on par with what I should be doing. I had a snack or 2 - again, nothing out of the ordinary. Then we went to Jim Dandy's. We were bringing Kristyn's parents out for dinner and I was 100% planning to eat well. Then I looked at the menu and realized 2 things. 1) There really is nothing healthy on the menu - and let's not be fooled by the salads. They say the word salad, but they are just as bad as everything else with everything they put into it. We had boneless buffalo wings for appetizers, I had a buffalo chicken cheesesteak and fries and sprite for my meal, and then i had 3-4 mac and cheese bites that were leftover from other people. I skipped the whole beer thing for the night BUT I think that was countered by having 2 large sodas. I was weak. I did well for 2/3 of the day, and then I blew it at night. I will say that it was glorious though!

Ahhhh - the beginning of Yankee weekend! I had tickets for Posada day and Pettitte day, which meant i would be at the House that Ruth built for a good portion of my weekend. Saturday morning, we woke up later than we had planned so I ran out of the house - no breakfast. We stopped at Starbucks and I got a double chocolatey chip frozen drink - but I had it with skim milk and no whipped cream - so it was somewhere around 250-300 calories I think. (Still less than a donut!) I ended up getting some food at the game finally right around 1pm - a buffalo chicken quesadilla. It was not all that good, because I could not get past the fact that they put blue cheese
in it, which I generally don't like. I could not really taste it but I didn't enjoy the meal because I just kept thinking about it. Plus it had too much cheese. Later on, I snuck a personal pizza in from the Papa Johns at the stadium and then a lemon ice. This sounds like a lot - I know, but that was pretty much it for the day. Lunch, Dinner and Snack - all wrapped into about 3 hours. The game was great and the Yankees won! But my stomach - not so much. Way later in the night I also grabbed a Jamaican Beef Patty which was not good. I didn't finish it. Drank lots of water today!

Day 2 at the stadium for Pettitte day! Got up and pretty much ran out again. (wanted to get some more autographs before the game.) This time, I stopped at Dunkin for 2 donuts and a red bull. A real blast from the past. I knew I would not be eating again until about 2pm, so I just let myself go.
At the stadium, I had 3 chicken sliders and Nathan's fries as well as dippin dots. Lots of water throughout the day. Night time brought an evening at Julie and Wes' house for Sammi's 8th b'day party. Snacked on some chips and a few too many peanut butter filled pretzels. Had 1 hamburger and 3 cans of root beer - i didn't bring any drinks with me - so I just drank what was there - and I LOVE rootbeer.
Ok - now it's time for you to pile it on. Yell at me like a little kid who just broke a window or something. I know that I am putting this all up, just a few days after making a big deal about how I didn't want to have lots of bad posts like this and I wanted to succeed so you don't all think I'm a momo. Then I go out and suck like this. I suppose this is not a great way to get everyone to believe that I'm even trying. I definitely had quite a bump in the road. THe good news is that after everything is all said and done, I am still down 5.6 lbs. This means I only brought back 1.4 lbs through this weekend. I was VERY active, so that helped a lot. I have no choice other than to do better starting tomorrow. It would be good to try to get myself to 10lbs in the next week, so that is my goal. Go ahead, get on me if you want. I deserve it and maybe it will help me. I don't know . . . . . we'll see. For now, I am off and I hope to have a much better report for you tomorrow.
