My Wife's Good Intentions

[yourmomgoestocollege]

I am 2 weeks into my 12 weeker and have been eating really clean for about a month now. Yesterday was my birthday and my wife wanted to make me dinner. She watches me eat a 6oz piece of fish and some brocc. for dinner on most nights yet she thought she would make me fried chicken, potatos and green beans. I ate it, and boy am I paying for it today.

maybe she thought that you will be bored of fish and broccoli and that you'll love some variety

1 meal isn't going to hurt you. Just forget about it and move on.

Yeah I know. Her heart was in the right place so I said thanks and enjoyed it. She did ask me this morning how I was feeling. Didn't have the heart to tell her I felt like crap. Well back at it today. Meal number 4 coming up soon.

ahhh i hate the next morning, sychologically and physically. i feel bloated, i think i look bloated, but im not actually that bloated.

UNLESS its a big cheat meal and then i feel i loose my abs....

The thought of loosing my abs keeps me on diet

Bro, you sound just like me at one point in time.

Just do a sanity-check and remember that your diet turns around your life. Not the other way

While I don't encourage slacking or cheating, one need to know when it's OK to let go a bit

I was in town the other day and walked past the pie shop. It's been about two years since I last had a nice pie and so I popped in and bought a spicy chicken pasty. It was delicious and it brought back memories of a lot of overindulgence.

I enjoyed it with no regrets. It'll be months before I do it again but it's not going to have any long-term negative effect either on me or my training.
