Alright well those cravings I was bragging about not having. OMG they hit me like a rock on Friday night. I held out all Friday night and we went to the Olive Garden on Saturday for lunch. I had a bowl of minestrone soup (very low cal and YUMM) as well as a large plate of salad (dressing on the side). And I only indulged in 1 breadstick. The naughty part was the piece of lemon crumb cake Jeremy and I split (its basically lemon cheesecake with cake on top and bottom and a bit of lemon strusel, basically to die for.

Later in the evening, I estimated all the calories and with a bowl of bran flakes and some applesauce, I was at my calorie limit for the day around 9 pm. About 11:30, cravings hit hardcore. I staved them off for about a half hour, but couldn’t resist and had Jeremy get me a chicken quesadilla a small nachos from Taco Bell (one of my favorite comfort meals). This put me at around 2000 calories for the day, WAY over my limit, but I made that my cheat meal (plus the lemon cake from earlier). I was really good today (under limit) so I hope that will counteract Saturday’s debauchery. I was at 121 on Sat. morning too, I really hope I didn’t fark that loss up. We shall see tomorrow. If not, well I can’t let those cravings overcome me again.

I want to make it to Hallowe’en weekend (when Mel is visiting) and only have one weekend day (when we are going to parTAY) as my naughty day. It’s definitely something to look forward to and focus on when the cravings hit.
