QT with Mummy means supper out and tonight we dined on East Side Mario's Bucatini Chicken Amatricana, caesar salad and a few pieces of bread. No night out with Mummy is complete until she gets her coffee from Timmy's on the way home, and she insists I have something with her, so I always order a peppermint tea. Tonight I coupled that with a miniature Kitkat bar that she 'made' me eat for dessert. Why not - I was falling down a slippery slope anyway :P

Monday

Breakfast:
granola, yogourt & mixed fruit
coffee

Snack:

Lunch:
PEI had a major power outage - cutting power for a great percentage of the area, and resulting in very little choice for lunch. It just happened to be the one day that I didn't actually pack a lunch. We ended up at Pizza Delight to dine on their lunch buffet...so lunch consisted of a small bit of pasta salad, garden salad, 1 garlic finger and 2 small slices of pizza. *oink*

Snack:
1 slice of watermelon

Supper:
tomato & red pepper soup
bagel

popcorn
glass of chocolate milk

Hmmph - I really didn't eat much did I? My body can take it ;)

Saturday

Breakfast:
granola, yogourt, mixed fruit
coffee

Snack:

Lunch:
Bucatini Chicken Amatricana from East Side Marios. It was April's "Birthday Lunch" so we treated ourselves. It was fan-freaking-tastic. It was off the lunch menu so the portion was a lot smaller. I'm pretty full though and will aim for a lighter supper methinks.

Lunch filled me up rather substantially so I only snacked on melba rounds and cream cheese into the evening hours of the day.

Whoopsie

Ok I'm a bad blogger...and have missed updating this until now. I could try to recall by memory what I've consumed since Thursday night of last week, but I'm no doubt going to be off, and the contents of which will undoubtably make me feel sorta guilty. It would be safe to say that I had another 'treating' weekend...complete with a beer and a slice of pizza on Friday night, a Frosty Treat cone & Cedars' shawarma on Saturday, followed up by Chinese food on Sunday. (*whistle whistle*). Did I exercise at all this weekend to try to offset the added intake? If one counts leisurely strolling through a furniture shop, Wal-Mart and walking to the car and back, then sure!

I DO plan on getting active now that the weather is (finally) turning more spring-like. Really, I do...and as I sit typing in a pair of pants that didn't fit for quite a while, I'm still getting somewhere, albeit slowly. I just wish the pants felt as comfortable as they did the last time I wore them. :S

Thursday

Breakfast:
granola, yogourt, 1/2 banana, strawberries & melon
I was still hungry so then I had a piece of homemade bread toasted with Chris' Nannie's homemade strawberry jam. I finished the jam. Sorry Chris.
coffee

Snack:

2 Smarties from April's birthday cake. I managed to have enough willpower to not have a slice of one of the 3 cakes on her desk. I am kicking myself a bit for not partaking in the carrot cake though.

Friday, Saturday & Sunday

Suffice it to say that I 'treated' myself this weekend. The food...OH THE FOOD!

I don't feel that it's worth accounting for every morsel (put it in front of me, I ate it! From Timbits to chips & dip, Party Mix, spring rolls... bottles and bottles of beer ...huge plate of turkey dinner and glass after glass of wine...'urp). I know I ate crappy. I felt crappy because I ate crappy...and it's Monday, and I'm back on the wagon!

Some points that make me feel a little less guilty about my all-out gorgefest this weekend:

• I still fit into the 2-sizes-smaller-jeans and lasted all evening long in them on Saturday night
• I am still down the 21 lbs (no more than that, but at least the scale didn't move in the other direction. Mind you, that calculation was done prior to the turkey dinner with trimmings, dessert and 3 glasses of wine!)
• zero Easter chocolate in the house to worry about consuming

Back at 'er!

*I had a date with Mummy and she treated me to supper. We went to Pizza Delight and there didn't appear to be much on the menu that was 'health smart'. Ah well - it was yummy regardless. Prior to supper we went shopping...and I have a newly purchased pair of jeans TWO sizes smaller than some of the other pants in my closet. I'm not gonna lie, they likely won't be completely comfortable for another few weeks of "healthy eating"...however, they do fasten, and did I mention, they're 2 sizes smaller? Granted, some of my pants do vary between sizes just based on the actual pant style and make, but I'm looking at the big picture :)
