Well another amazing weekend in the books!  One of my best friends is getting married!!!  SO Bachelorette Party madness 🙂 What comes after a night of French 77s, wine, mimosas, Chicago style popcorn, chocolate fondue . . . and lots and lots of other yumminess . . . sickness.  Oh man does the belly hurt!  I have learned that I will never give weekends like this up.  This is part of life.  Poor eating choices are LIFE.  We need to remember to not get so down on ourselves for weekends like this.  Could I have toned it down a little on the popcorn?  YES.  Could I have eaten MORE?  Possibly haha.  But what happened happened and the only thing I could do when I got home was make myself a Shakeology with some Greens Power boost and chug water 🙂 Does that make up for it?  Nope, but it also doesn’t take away the awesome memories I made with awesome friends.

I don’t want to feel like this every day or let weekends throw me off track and quit.  So I don’t.  I move on.  Too many people think they need to be PERFECT with their fitness journey!

THIS is why I take care of my body the rest of the week so that I don’t have to be so hard on myself.  Is this every weekend that I gorge?  Nope.  Will I do it again?  Yup – lots of friends to go on the married train 😉 Will I push a little harder to work my muscles so they can continue to burn off those carmel and cheese popcorn calories?  YES!!!!

FEEL proud of yourself EVERYDAY!  Even those hard days – don’t let 1 weekend throw you off –  LOVE YOUR BODY and TREAT IT RIGHT!  Don’t love your body by fueling it with crap ALL the time.
