Well the past few days were a little rought since my mom and I have eating out a lot.  In the past few days we've eaten at Perkins, Chipotle, and a few other "no-no" type places.  I hope that I did really well but only the scale will tell.  I even got to enjoy some of my favorite food last night when my husband and I went out for dinner.  He wanted mexican really bad so after a little bit of internal debating I gave in.  After we got back my thoughts turned to today.  I thought, Oh crap that was a mistake because I weigh in on Sunday, maybe I shouldn't have eaten mexican the night before a weigh in but it's too late now.  Anyway I got up this morning and reluctanly stepped on the scale and immediately a smile came to my face.  I lost 6.2 pounds.   Of couse that weight loss is motivating me to work out more.  Only because I've kind of slacked off in the exercise department but hey, nobodys perfect right?  For lunch today we went to a hibachi grill and I got steak and shrimp and it was yummy.  This following week is going to be trying though because I have 3 "dinner" parties lined up.  My friends are coming over Wed. to celebrate a late christmas with us, we have dinner plans with my neighbor on Saturday, and Sunday is my birthday.  And if you are asking, No, I'm not going to skip out on the birthday dessert.  I'll just have to work it off somehow.  My mom weighs in tommorrow so be sure to check back and see how she did.  HAPPY DIETING!!
