Rough Week

Last week was a rough week. I started the week off at 234 and ended at 237. The thing is, most of the weight gain was avoidable by simply making better choices. Instead of having the scrumptuous but artery-clogging all you can eat buffet at the Mexican food place, I could have had one bean burrito and one taco or something. Instead I ate about four times as much overall. That's probably the worst example, but you get the drift, I just wasn't on the top of my game last week.

Yesterday I had a Diet Mountain Dew, the first soda I've had in a little over a month. The good news is that I believe I've successfully broken myself of them. I used to drink three or four 20 ounce bottles of it a day, but now I can say that I prefer water. If you'd have told me that two months ago, I'd have looked at you like you were completely insane. This week I'm trying to do much better and at least try to reach back down to 235 or so by the end of the week. This will test my attitude, because I'm a little down about the 3 pound weight swing.
