I'll instead use all of the strategies I've learned over the past 6 months to eat sensibly, listen to my body and trust myself to make good choices all weekend.
I thought I'd take a minute and report in on how I did with this goal.

I think I'd give myself a B-.

Today is my WW weigh day, and the scale tells me I'm exactly the same weight as last week. So that pulled up the grade.

Pulling *down* the grade is how I feel I handled myself at the food stops on the ride. I didn't make *terrible* choices, but I also think I could have made better ones. For example, at the "Western" themed food stop - I should have stopped at one s'more, but they were so yummy that I had two! At the "OSU Tailgate Party" themed food stop, I made mostly good choices: a baked potato, half of a grilled burger (gave Jeff the other half), some fruit... But then they also had 5 different kinds of cookies to choose from. I couldn't decide, so..... I'm unhappy to report that all 5 flavors were fantastically delicious, especially the peanut butter cookie.

Clearly, 225 miles and ~15,000 feet of climbing burned off the excesses, but I still wish I could have exercised a little more self control. You know - two cookies instead of five!
