Just Isn't Happening...

Well, this week isn't turning into the best week for dieting.  I ended last week at the beach, Saturday through Monday.  I splurged a bit while at the beach.  I was not able to weigh in on Monday but I did weigh on Tuesday just to see how much damage I had done.  I was surprised to see I was only up 1.5 pounds.

Wednesday night we went out to dinner with friends in honor of my best friend's birthday.  She picked Olive Garden which I was thrilled to go to.  I L-O-V-E that place!  I felt like a kid pulling up at Chuck E Cheese last night when we got to the restaurant.  I think a little giggle slipped out too, from giddiness.  I know the dish I usually eat, fettuccine Alfredo, is extremely high in points.  In fact, most everything there is high in points.  I ended up going with the lasagna which was the lowest points dish I could find that I could/would eat.  However, I also indulged in an appetizer, the salad, quite a few bread sticks, and then proceeded to eat all of my lasagna.  Nope, I did not weigh this morning.  I didn't even want to see how much damage I had done with that meal.  No way! 

Today, my best friend I mentioned above, delivered twin babies.  I am so excited to go meet them this evening and see her too.  We decided that we would be going to Pizza Inn for supper and I totally plan to eat that yummy pizza.  I will not over do it but I will enjoy it! 

So basically this week is a bust.  I still plan to do my points through the weekend but I do NOT expect to see any loss on the scale Monday when I weigh.  I will start anew on Monday and will also begin my exercise regimen.  I did actually get on the treadmill Tuesday evening.  Yay me.  Now just to create a routine and consistency for it.
