That is what working out is all about. My goal is to get to the point were I can cheat more and maintain while working out. I'm about 8 lbs away from that goal so I still feel bad when I cheat but hey life is short and pizza, wings, and beer is sooooo gooooooood.

KSH - 2009-06-11 8:37 AM Yeah, I took that approach with IM training last year... and I got up to 130 pounds... I had to work hard to get down to 118 pounds.

I went to Subway for lunch today, ordered foot-long roasted chicken sandwich (no cheese or mayo) but I at all the whole thing!  I usually eat half and save the rest for later.

between sunday night and a few minutes ago, I have eaten several bagels slathered with cream cheese, anything that had carb attatched, and a whole package of break and bake tollhouse cookies.

a whole flippin package.


i swear I'm going to be fat forever.

Dont beat yourself up for the "once a week pig out". If you train hard for six, and count the fuel your eating...the once a week belly treat is actually a nice reward....over time...as you continue to loose weight you will find your weekly gorge getting smaller and smaller as your stomach shrinks with your body.

I frequently have a "snap" day...and in the grand scheme...it does not sideline you much. Toss an extra half hour on that bike come monday and those two pizza slices are history.

Been there with you on that one...here is a list of the other sins I can remember

1. Cliff peanut butter bar...ohh so good. About four in a row good. MUUAHAHAHA
2. MGD light..only 64 calories...shure..I'll have another..and another..and another
3. KFC extra crispy...I'll take the $28 bucket for me, my wife, and me again. Don't forget those biscuits too!
4. Cereal...in a mixing bowl. (Reeses puffs won't make it 24 hours in my pantry....but I do recycle the box!).
5. Bacon...who in gods name brought this home...and why can't I cook all 24 slices at the same time..I don't want to wait for seconds. 

Anyway...sin makes me happy in moderation. I just kick it up a notch the next day and sub out a light or medium training event with a tough long event.

I had an entire pint of ice cream the other night. Although it was only 600 cals it's still a fairly big self control slip considering it was like 3am and I had to drive to go get it.

Funny thing is I woke up and I was 2 lbs lighter the next morning.

I'm still working off my post-tri weight gain from this past winter, but it's down to about 35lbs now after this past month of extra hard work.

I'm not going through this again next winter. I'm signing up for a spring half mary to keep me on track!

nevergivin - 2009-06-17 10:56 AM I had 3 1/2 Ice cream sandwiches after masters swim last night, not sure how many calories that was! The 1/2 was from the one my six year old daughter was eating, I needed it more than she did!!!!!
