Let me start off by saying that right now my stomach hurts so bad from eating a piddly 5 fried pickles I can hardly see to type. I understand the idea of a splurge meal, but I need to do some serious refining of my thinking!
This is a GOOD thing b/c it proves to me that my body does NOT WANT FRIED FOODS or foods super high in fat and that they throw me out of wack. More on that in a second.
So I'm at my MIL's still. This morning I blissfully slept past 9am. Then got ready to go out and run on the track. Stopped by Kmart and picked up some swim suits for the kiddos and a few other things for us and then left for the track. I did interval runs for 30 minutes. It was a pretty good workout and I was sweating pretty good. :) Of course it was like 10:20am when I was running. Fit day says only burned 231 cals, but seems liked more to me.
As I was leaving I got a call from my MIL asking if I was on my way back that they were ready to go down to their property on the creek. So I got there, still sweaty, grabbed some clothes for after I jumped in the water, and my turkey breast/apple and we took off down there. I spent most of the day training the puppy to sit and stay so it didnt clobber my kids every 5 seconds. Then around 1:15 Josie was heading towards MELT-DOWN from not getting her nap so we came back home.
I ate my turkey and carrots like a good girl then headed upstairs to take a little nap. Around 3-ish I woke and went downstairs where Josie was whining in Papas arms. I figured she must be hungry, so I got her some grapes. She wouldn't eat them, so I did?! Then got her some Amish bread, which I snuck some bites in of as well.
Around 4 the Lindor truffles I bought for my chocolate trist tonight were calling for me and since I knew we'd be heading
to dinner shortly I went ahead and ate some. When I say some I mean TWELVE, TWELVE TRUFFLES. Do you KNOW how many calories that is? Let me tell you , its 660 cals. And do you know how much fat 54 GRAMS!!!! That 5 times the amount of fat I ate in the entire DAY yesterday!!!
When we got to the resturant NOTHING looked good to me. Seriously! I knew eating anything fried would tear up my stomach so I didnt order for anything fried (shrimp or cx) and I wasnt interested in a mostly-fat prime rib steak so I just ordered three "side" dishes. Mac n Cheese, hushpuppies, and a baked potato with REAL sour cream. When the fried pickles my MIL ordered came I decided to eat only 5 so my stomach wouldnt explode. They were good, but not amazing. Then our food came. The hushpuppies were the worst I've ever eaten in my LIFE so I only ate 1.5 and left the rest of the plate. Then I ate one bite of my mac and cheese, which also was terrible, and gave the rest to my 19 month old (she loved it since it only really tasted like plain macaroni!) and I just ate the baked potato w/ REAL sour cream. It was pretty good. I was STUFFED after that. About to burst wide open it felt like.
I think the real thing to blame is the TRUFFLES for the stomach pain, not the fried food. But I don't think I could put another morsel in my mouth. I am glad I got the chocolate fix out of my system, but I'm not sure I'd do it again. HURTING!!!

So, today was a fun day overall. I sang in the praise choir this morning so I was up and at em early this morning. After church we decided to go to Zaxby's for my "Splurge" meal. Wow after I just looked at the calorie count I'm pretty sure it wasnt THAT delicious!! Then Josie and I had icecream on the way home and the boys went to the botanical gardens to enjoy Dinosaur days. Josie went right down to sleep when we got home and I rested outside on the swing for about 20 min till I got hot and went in and slept about 2 hours. :) VERY NICE! I love naps. When Logan got home we decided to wash the cars. It was fun. Nice to finally get some work outta these kids. ;)
I gave my body the day off but still technically got some exercise cleaning both cars. Still, it wouldnt "plug in" to leanness.
Here's my food for the day:
M1: EAS RTD & brayburn apple 160 c
M2: Zaxby's chicken finger plate, no tx toast, no slaw & a coke to drink. 1276 cals!!!!! 56 fat
M3: Dairy Queen turtle waffle bowl sundae 918 c 42 fat!!!!
M4: Fresh fruit and some skim milk mozerella cheese (at cell group instead of COOKIES) 201 c
