Day 122

Day two of a three day weekend.  Always a fun time until the day you have to go back to work.  I decided that it would be a goof off day especially from the gym.  In celebration of the local famous race Ski to Sea I went for a bike ride. Went for about an hour and it felt good. I went a bit of a different way, actually parts were from my normal summer ride. I wanted to try a different track today.  I did push it though as I went out for lunch and had a burger.  If you can't occasionally eat stuff you like than you'll never enjoy your life.  So I will always eat stuff I like just not every day or at least if I can help it.  So how did I do?

Breakfast: Oatmeal with lemon curd and 20oz of cold water.

After the bike ride: A bacon cheeseburger with a pile of onion rings.  Also a Mike's Harder lemon-aide drink, alcoholic.

Dinner: Three egg frattata with onion, garlic, spinach and some steak slices.  For dessert I had an apple fritter.

So you can see I didn't really eat the way I normally do, but didn't go crazy either.  The cheeseburger and onion rings had been on my mind for a while so finally decided to go for it.  I have figured out that if I'm craving something and I try to avoid it then I'm in trouble.  I will end up eating other stuff but not responsibly.  So go ahead and have the burger.  I did have them hold the mayo and 1000 island dressing and just had the burger dry.  I'm sure it didn't make a big difference but it did help some.  And that's the important thing, try to make small changes towards the big picture.
