Well, everybody's doing it!

If last week was one of my best weeks ever while on vacation (I exercised six days, and I kept track of everything I ate), then this week is not so good.  I will not say it is the worst week ever on vacation, but when you eat out for 4 days in a row (it will be six by Saturday, tomorrow we are traveling-might make myself a few sandwiches actually, and Saturday my grandma is having her b-day catered), no amount of exercise can help you.  I have tried making decent decisions-subway sandwich on Mon while my fam had Miguels Jr, and a salad at Farmer Boys yesterday (400 cals).  Tuesday and today were not so good.  We were invited to go to In n' Out on Tuesday- they are burgers are just so good, it is hard to turn them down.  At least I did not get the fries or a shake-although  I did mooch off of my brother's fries-hey at least it was not a whole order of fries right?  And then today my dad had his 25th year celebration for working at Boeing, and they went out to eat for that.  Everyone else had dessert, so I had to do it to.  Uggh....  My stomach is so sick.  Why all of the sudden is it so hard to say no!  I don't know how many unhealthy cookies and snacks I have had the last few days.  My digestive system does not know what to think.  Right now it is very mad.  I feel kind of shaky (seriously, I have not had that much sugar in a LONG time, that cake was packed with it), and I feel really sick and bla. 

Part of my problem is that I have been absent from writing the last few days.  It is so hard when I am hearing from people-well you are on vacation, who doesn't gain 5 pounds on vacation?  Are you sure you do not want anything?  But, really it doesn't matter what others are telling me, I should just stay true to what I have taught myself over the last year-its just not worth it to do something so detrimental to the goals I set.  I don't want to feel sick on vacation.  I want to have fun without worrying about what I am going to eat.  I don't want to gain five pounds on vacation.  Just because other people do, does not mean I should, or that it is even okay for me to do it too!  I want to be the exception, I want to stay the weight I am on vacation (or even lose it if at all possible!).  The good news is that I have kept on exercising.  I have not missed a day yet, besides Sunday, but I do not exercise that day. 

On a lighter note, I am so excited.  We are going to the beach this evening to have a bonfire-roast some hotdogs and marshmallows.  I might just roast the hotdogs.  My dad and I are also going to try and get a run in while we are there.  How fun will that be to run on the beach?  I can't wait!  I did not get to exercise this morning, so I have to this evening.  Tomorrow I am going to try and wake up early to exercise before we have to leave.  Who knows if that is going to happen.  Saturday is hopefully going to be another running day.  I will get to see my husband then!  Yay!  It will be easier to say no when he is around I think.  Hopefully.

Sorry for my rambling on.  I just needed to get this off of my chest.  I just feel sick, and I don't want to feel sick anymore.  I hope that I am good tonight!  Wish me luck! 

What do you have a hard time saying no to while on vacation?
