YAY - it's Friday - but then again that means the weekend is here and so many of us abandon our healthy habits these 2 days! Always to vow and usually get back on track on Monday.

I know for me, weekends throw me for a loop - but NOT this weekend. I have our menu planned and meats are in fridge thawing.
If I thaw the meat, I normally follow through w/ cooking it vs. tossing it out.

Also - I got up early this morning 5:45a and rode my bike, so I'm going to do that over the weekend as well - because it's impossible to get that time in anywhere else when my husband is home all day.

Hope you all have a fun and healthy weekend!

You are so right !!! I use the weekends, as my "down" time from the riggers of monitoring everything that goes into my mouth. I haven't been doing too badly, but I have my moments. I hope to not veer off course, in such a way, that I find it difficult to get back on track. You are doing well, planning ahead. Keep up the good work. Have a great weekend.

It is soooo hard for me on the weekends! I know that the best way to avoid ending up at a drive through window is to plan ahead! Good luck everyone!

Congratulations on your weight loss. I'm sure you will follow through with your plans. Remember, this is not a diet . . . it's a healthier lifestyle and changing our old habits.

Ever since I've been eating healthier, my face is smoother . . . I rec'd this compliment last night by my sister.

Please provide some feedback on your weight loss. I'm sure this will encourage me to continue lose . . .

I have dinner for tonight planned but that's as far as I've gotten. Just have to remember to put the roast in the crockpot around 11am. I don't do too bad on weekends--too much housework to keep me busy, but I usually forget to take my phen. Have a great day everyone!!

insearchofme · May 16th, 2008, 09:37 AM

Saturday is typically my worst day, as far as eating goes. I have alway "started" my week on Sunday. So Sundays for me are a breeze. I do the bulk of my cleaning during the week, and relax a bit on the weekends. I am struggling today to make good food choices after buying "snacks" for the house yesterday. I may have to load up a trash bag and get them out of the house.

I have to agree that weekends are harder. I hate cookin on the weekends, I like to just chill with the fam. My oldest has her karate awards tonight, she should be getting a new belt, so we always take her out to celebrate and I just know we are gonna end up at Peter Piper Pizza (its like a generic Chuck E Cheese LOL) I love their pizza it is sooooo yummy. I will order the big salad and maybe just have 1 or 2 slices, it so hard. We have ton of stuff to do around the house, we are having our huge Memorial day party next Saturday, so all the yard work, patio furnitre cleaning, and pool cleaning should do me some good. ARGHH I have such a love hate relationship with the weekends!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Definitely feel ya on the 'love hate relationship'. But I'm so jealous of you. I would love to have a yard with real grass to be able to have a party. s u c ks living in the city sometimes.

And I'm the exact opposite. I can't wait to move out of this house and into a condo/loft. I'm sick of the yard, the dog maintenance, pool, snow shoveling, gardening.....We're moving to a small town in the next couple of years and I don't think they have any condos there so we're going to have to build one. I'm not moving to a house until I'm retired and have the time for it.

Raquel.....it's funny you mention this because last night we watched a show about the most unique McDonald's restaurants and it just got me craving some major Big Macs! I am going to exercise all my self-control this weekend not to go there and have some of those yummy fries.

OK, that thing about 'the greener grass" might hold some weight. I think I'll stick with my concrete slab. LOL. I hate outside work!!
