So today marks the first full day of my cousins trip to my home here in DC. Yesterday when she came in all I did was throw my diet out the window and EAT. I have a hard time seperating ’socializing’ from eating in my brain. So it was completely natural for me to dive into seconds at dinner, entertain with chips and dip and top it all off with some brownies….badbadbad. I am not going to do that anymore. When I went to bed last night I beat myself up for slipping and feeling that guilty is not how I want to remember her trip here.

Better decisions can be made. Today is going to be tough but I’m up to the challenge. We’re going to be tourists and prolly eating out for 2 meals. I’m pledging to myself right now that I’m packing healthy snacks aka fruit and water bottles and when we eat out to focus on veg meals and even then limit my portions. All the walking should take care of the few extra calories and I think I’ll even hit the gym for a bike ride before we go out. Wish me luck! Tomorrow is my weekly weigh in….I’d like to finally make a dent in my goal.
