I think since it's the weekend, everyone is eating, drinking and being merry!
For my part, I just got done with my 15 hour workday- tonite was "German Fest" downtown. The city closes off the streets of the Downtown areas and we have German music and food all nite. The kitchen I run set up two beer tents and a food tent where we did 2,000 brats, 12 x 5 gal pails of fried 'kraut and 350 lbs of hot potato salad (my own 'special recipe'
).
Sadly, my low-carb diet took a beating today!
I went about 12 hours into my shift before I realized I hadn't eaten. Since the actual kitchen was closed by the time I was done out front, I ended up eating a couple of 1/2 lb brats with the bun.
And washing 'em down with a couple brews, too.
Oh, well- I'll hit it again tomorrow.
Sorry to hijack your thread, Spicy- sounds like you're doing great. Along the lines of encouragement, I say "keep your eyes on the prize!"
You've come a long way, and I doubt you'll let such hard-won gains go easily. That's a big motivator for me; having lost about 100 lbs, I really am hellbent not to gain that flab back again. That gets me over those
long work weeks where I don't feel like working out after work.
Stick with it, Spice! The weight you've already lost is proof positive that you can do it!
