Well, I've managed to put myself in a pickle this week--a points pickle.
Here's the scenario:
-I ate my way to -5 points for the week, going into Sunday. This means I've downed 5 more than my allowable weekly and activity points. The goal is to have weekly/ activity points remaining---or at least be even.
-In an attempt to salvage the week, I walked the 5 points off this am. Normally, this would leave me just ducky, as I only have to stay within my 43 daily points today to call this week a "success".
-This is soooo not that kind of day. I've committed to going to one of my fave upscale Mexican restos for dinner. One that specializes in fancy margaritas and delicioso fajitas.
-To compound things, my fabulous boyfriend has a ton (like 80+) weekly/ activity points left, so he is free and clear for dinner tonight.
UH OH.
My options:
-Say "fuck it".
-Show supreme restraint.
The early decision is to go with the latter. I am currently planning to have a grilled shrimp salad and a mere 12 tortilla chips. Sounds yummy. Ok, not at all--but--sometimes you just gotta suck it up and make a good choice.
May the force be with me.
