Will be heading out for dinner and drinks tonight with friends from out of town, but I so need get out of the house and socialize. I studied last night and a good portion of today and my brain hurts.

I also have a friend's birthday dinner tomorrow at a very high-end restaurant as well, so it's just been a row of cheat meals for me over the holidays....

I need to start having cardio fests like Bunns soon

The holiday eating frenzy continued last night But on the upside, I had a really fun night with my friends. Being sick for while had me stuck with a bad case of the blahs, so I feel like I really need this weekend to get my spirits back up.

I had initially thought I would stick to a salad last night, but we ended up eating pan-asian food communal style. I had crab pad thai, wasabi shoe string fries but also some healthier options like chicken skewers, seared tuna and salad. Unfortunately, a slew of vodka cocktails followed the meal and I ended up back at the diner on the way to my car for a slice of apple pie and coffee. But man, did that slice of pie taste good!

All my friends did tell me I look really thin though and I even flexed my arms a couple of times while buzzed to show off my muscle

Now I have to get ready for cheat meal #3 tonight....

Sun, Nov 27th

Scale weight: 122lbs (weighed myself 3 times since I'm surprised I wasn't way bloated with the carbs and sugah)

Plan to do some cardio and just drink protein shakes till tonight's birthday dinner.

You are always going out to restaurants and eating great food--and you look like you're in awesome shape!! I'm jealous.

Thanks, Skychick! That's one way to look at it...I love eating out in style, martinis and wine but unfortunately this is a direct conflict with my clean eating and exercise program. I am trying hard to curb this only to Sat nights as my weekly cheat, but certain weeks are crazier than others, especially around holidays. I can't believe I had 4 cheat meals this past week. Argh!! I know if I could keep my cheat meal/drinking in check, I could lose that last annoying layer of fat too.

Well, I lied. I couldn't get my lazy ass motivated to do any cardio yesterday even though I sat in bed till noon thinking about it.

12:15pm (after deciding I wasn't going to do cardio):
1/2 cup oats
1 cup liquid eggwhites
15 almonds
1 packet splenda

4pm:
1 buffalo burger patty
3 oz potatos

7:30pm:
Since we were eating family style and splitting the bill right down the middle at a restaurant that cost an arm and a leg, I couldn't make myself hold back:

1 lychee martini
1 glass red wine
Split across a table of 4
appetizers: asian cashew ceaser salad, shrimp pad thai
entrees: aged beef with sczhwan shoestring fries, ponchu chicken with steamed roast pork dumplings, some fancy halibut dish
dessert: chocolate dessert sampler box with 6 choices. Need I say more?

So I felt like this afterwards: But I was also happy that my friend enjoyed herself because she normally hates her birthday.

I came home and made vows to re-introduce am cardio back into my life. I think I'm going to need it to maintain during this holiday season. And after that, come Jan 1, I need to seriously think about cutting again.

Well, at least you weren't bloated when you started. How you feeling today (other than guilty). lol

...I love eating out in style, martinis...

Amen to that. One of my favorite experiences was going to the Russian Vodka bar around Broadway and sampling the range of vodka they had. Have you ever been?
