I hate to disappoint you? ? Carla's Fitness Blog

This past week or so was the first time that I have gone ?off plan?!? I feel like I will disappoint my readers by admitting that I didn?t eat as well as I should have over the last little while.

I think I had a bit of a delayed stress reaction about quitting my job, and then my Grandma has been seriously ill in the hospital for the last week or so and we are not sure if she is going to make it. :(

I also?attended several get-togethers where the only healthy thing on offer was salad, which I did have, but then I let a couple of other things pass my lips with the excuse of ?this is out of my control and I have no choice but to eat this?!? For example, on Mother?s Day we went to a get-together and I had salad and sausages which is fine,?but also these artichoke hearts breaded in flour and fried.? They are one of my favorite things ever so I had some.? Then they asked me to bake chocolate chip cookies and I really didn?t want to, so another excuse came out of hiding, the familiar ?well if I have to make these then I deserve to eat some?!? So I had a couple of those too.? :(

Of course the inevitable after effects began within an hour or so.? I started to have allergies and by the evening I felt like throwing up.? My stomach was in agony!

Lo and behold I gained 3 lbs in one week of less than stellar eating.? Incredible.? Just goes to show that I always have to stay vigilant or the weight will come back!?

Happily?when Monday rolled around I went right back to my healthy way of eating! :) ? I feel so much better.? I was going to start feeling like crap about myself and all guilty and everything but I figured that won?t do me any good so why bother.

One thing I did do right over the last week is that I got in a lot of exercise!?

Hubby and I played two games of tennis last week among other things,

(Notice my new Lululemon?tennis/running skort! :) )

I also did some fun gardening!? I planted flowers in pots and an herb garden:

Tonight I am making baked fish and I am going to use some of that fresh parsley!? Yum! :D

Have a great day and thanks for reading!
