Food
I have been a very bad girl.
The past two weekends (a scrapbooking retreat and an anniversary getway with my sweetie) have wreaked havoc on my diet. I didn’t even step on the scale this morning for weekly weigh-in. There’s no point. I can tell the news is bad by the way my too-big jeans aren’t all that big this week. Hmpf.
I’ve dined on Everything Carb. Yesterday morning, I woke up and had a candy bar for breakfast on my way out the door. (Dani is selling those fund-raising candy bars for her choir trip). For dinner, I noshed on Chicken Pad Thai at Pei Wei, followed by a Cinnamon Latte and a Cappuccino Brownie at Starbucks. Earlier in the weekend, I ate a bag of Funyuns with Wasabi (OH YUM!!!) when I wasn’t even hungry. Bad, bad Stacy.
All weekend, we took pictures of our food. We always do that, even though the photos rarely make our scrapbooks. What is UP with that? Why do I always want pics of the food?
As my friend Cara said last night (she’s evidently been bad, too), we haven’t simply fallen off the wagon. We’ve rolled underneath it. Time to circle the wagons, hike my skirts, and climb back on! GIDDY UP!
In the meantime… layouts with food (click to enlarge):

What was it a friend said maybe last week - no you’re not a “bad girl”, you perhaps made poor (but delicious) food choices? We’re here to cheer you as you get back on the “wagon”. No journey is ever easy … often 2 steps forward, 1 step back. Keep going, Stacy. We KNOW that you can do it!
Go Stacy. Go Stacy. Go Stacy.
PS: I have many pictures of food too, but I haven’t scrapped them … yet. Thanks for the inspiration.

Because pictures of food are fun. I wish I was brave enough to do it more. I read the blogs of a few “food-bloggers”. Their pictures make you drool!!!

Funny…I wrote about falling off the diet wagon in my blog yesterday! Must have been a bad diet week all around. I take pictures of the food too. Food is fun and so many special moments and friendships are shared over food. We want to remember the moment, the fun, the joy, the friends, and yes, the food! I jumped back up on my diet horse today and I am trotting along. Come on, get on girl!
