Ok I don't feel so bad now. I'm totally justifying my slacking by saying to myself "hey I have a 300k this weekend."along with not doing weekday rides, and justifying it all (but not really, I _know_ better) by saying "Oh, I've been doing 100 mile, 200 mile, 300 mile rides every weekend."

It sure is good to know I'm not alone. Shall we promise to be good this coming weekend? Uh... maybe not. I'm going to be in MD for Mother's Day and my mom's having a catered birthday party for my stepfather on Sat and the family is having a big Mother's Day party on Sun. I don't see much healthy eating happening. I'll try, though. Crabcakes are healthy, right? We get the ones with no breading - true MD crabcakes. And, I'll have no riding for almost an entire week (Thursday-Tuesday). Ooh that's bad.

Gosh, I've been eating terribly since I went on vacation in March, and have five extra (solid) pounds to show for it. I've been tracking my intake on fitday and the quantity has amazed me. So that last few days I've been trying to clean up my act! Sunday I still managed to eat cookies, chocolate, and cheese, but at least in smaller quantities!

Did you enjoy the food you ate? Was the company good?
I think it's important to be aware of what you eat, but life is short. You never know what is going to happen. Don't begrudge yourself the enjoyment you get from eating - especially if you're spending time with family and friends and socializing. That doesn't mean go all wacked and eat poorly every day or neglect the exercise side of a healthy lifestyle. And if you're eating because you're bored or depressed that's obviously not good.
Just my .02 cents.

Don't worry about me Veronica - I had a great time this past weekend and I'm going to enjoy every last bite of that giant crabcake! Ooh I can taste it already! I was just so amazed at how crappy I felt after eating so poorly. I usually eat well and also eat fairly rich foods (nothing fried though - even here in the south), but I didn't see a vegetable after friday night. Everything in moderation works for me. The twinkie - I can't even begin to explain that. Those things do not normally come into my house - my husband brought them back as leftovers from the lock-in he did with the local youth.
