When keeping a diet goes wrong…

Generally my friends think that I’m over-zealous with 97% of everything I do. I just have one of those “go hard” personalities. Generally my friends are right but not this weekend – this weekend I was normal (in my own way)! Inline with my over-zealousness; I am doing a cleanse to help with weight loss but the more I looked at my plans for the weekend, the more I realized the cleansing diet just was not going to work.

I had a pretty busy schedule – I think I spent time with everyone (in the metro Atlanta) I had been neglecting because of travel and workout in 60hrs… in addition to football, my unwanted side hustle of hairstylist and church.

Day 1: I managed to keep on track on Friday with a last min reminder that shrimp and broccoli met the green veggie and chicken or fish rule but I fell asleep without taking the Friday night pill but it was all in the name of beauty.

Day 2: Then Saturday came… I didn’t eat breakfast because I was trying to do my hair and then I had to get a pedi before I headed to see mommy dearest and CeCe (to do their hair). I stopped for lunch at the chicken place got a grilled chicken sandwich and side salad – almost met the lunch rules minus the bread but I didn’t have breakfast so it was okay…right? Saturday night… well lets say that GB has delicious crab artichoke dip and no – that was not a part of the rules and neither were those 2 glasses of wine.

Day 3: ohhhh Sunday. Even God took a break on the 7th day right? I jumped out of normal and straight into out of control. Janaan makes EXCELLENT dessert (and she will sell them to you too) – I went to help her and spend some QT with my Tinker and Paco Taco… and let’s just say that 2 cookies (who is really counting), a mini red velvet cake and a lot of other goodness later – diet smiet!  So you would think that I stopped there right? WRONG! I went to cheer on my favorite football team (EAGLES! And yes I say that with pride despite the recent loss) and a salad was not going with me. At tailgate I had some “apple juice” that’s what we will call it… the kind that makes some people more friendly and others more angry. I become more friendly – go figure. Then in the game I had an order of French fries – btw I think the GA Dome might have thee fries that I’ve had in a LONG time; and another adult beverage but of course this time I coupled it with water! EPIC FAIL

Speaking of water – who knows what happened to that gallon a day count – but I’m back on it… tomorrow, I left my big cup at home, oops!

But today, today, today is, is, is a new, new, new day, day day…. And I will be back on track! As long as I don’t pass out from doing too much including staying out because of the game until 12:15ish and up until almost 1am and waking up at 4:45 because I had boot camp at 5:30am this morning….

But I have lost 8lbs since the cleanse started!!!!!!!!!!!!!
