Getting into Gear

So I've been really out of wack the last few days and I haven't been as motivated as usual. I've gone over calories each day (not a lot but still...) I was at I believe 278.2 and I'm back up to 280 but I'm wondering if it is partially because I am not drinking very much water either and I'm sure that doesn't help. I ate some candy yesterday and I am not proud. I am trying to kick my butt into gear today, hopefully I can be successful! Hopefully I can at least get the dishes into the dishwasher and dinner prepped for tonight (quiche and scalloped potatoes yum) Anyway, The other day my husband and I went out to Ihop (yes, yes I know...BAD) well anyway, I was like "I'm going to get a salad that's healthy!" Here is my lesson to YOU, just because it is a salad it doesn't make it healthy! Their salads had over 1,000 calories in them...in a SALAD! I was beyond shocked. I ended up choosing a philly cheesesteak with 800 calories in it and had a small bowl of fruit. I only ate half the sandwich and so I feel good about that trip. I still though, can not believe that these salads had so many calories in them even though they are portrayed as the healthy option. I try to calculate the calories in the food I want to eat BEFORE I serve it or eat it that way I know how much I can have or what to not have. Anyway, I need to get off the couch, quit watching Pocahontas with my daughter and do the darn dishes! Logging out!
