Well Sad to say I don't even have to weigh myself to know I have gained back at least 2 pounds this week. I don't work out on the weekends as a rule, we are usually running around to begin with. On top of that instead of eating out once we ate out twice for lunch. Bad I know. And we had been eating at Stone Oven because I love their salads and tea. So good! But this weekend we ate taco bell and then after I spent forever grocery shopping I realized we had no lunch so we grabbed in and out really late since it's a couple blocks away. I don't know if this is a perk or a downfall to living in the city and right off the freeway. hmm.
Then I had a brilliant idea to check out a little donut and deli shop that is actually right below us (we are on a hill) and well I'm addicted. Such good donuts and one I have never seen before. Plus the drinks are AMAZING! The frappes anyway. My husband had a cookies and cream that he loved and I tried frozen hot chocolate. Holy cow you guys. I've seen frozen hot chocolate in passing on Pinterest but it scared me. I didn't understand how it could possibly be good, I hate when my hot chocolate goes cold you know? And it was strange at first but geez so good! The guy is super nice too so that's always a plus. We had that both days too. Its bad but we had a rough rough night with stupid neighbors until 3am and other stuff we still had to do so we relaxed a bit.
I know I should have worked out for sure after eating all that but what can I say I also was up all night a couple nights with my daughter. The first day after being up all night I was able to get myself on the treadmill but I couldn't go as fast so I just amped up the incline. The second day I said screw it though haha. Then this morning at late notice we ended up babysitting a little boy so no treadmill for me. Oh well, I know I've been super hungry from eating bad and I need to get a handle on it. But tonight is Zucchini Pizza so maybe that will get it back on track. I know I know sounds seriously gross right? NO!!! It's actually pretty good! And super quick and easy. I'll put the Recipe down below in case you want to give it a try.
But see, this is what I mean by I'll work at being healthy and all that but I'm not going to kill myself for eating donuts and not working out for a few days. It was fun and we enjoyed it so who cares? Not me! lol
