The Weekend!

I'm apprehensive about going into the weekend.  Weekends are a bad time for me with regards to eating.  I usually don't eat well on the weekends.  Whenever I'm on a diet, the weekend is when I cheat.  The main reason is my mentality about it.  The weekends are supposed to be fun, you're off from work, it's a time to relax and have fun. 

Having fun = food
Fun food = Junk food

I just need to change my mentality.

Having fun = spending time with my family and friends, doing fun activities, reading a good book, doing a puzzle, etc.
Having fun may equal food, but doesn't always have to.
And fun food doesn't have to equal junk food, I need to find yummy, fun satisfying healthy foods.

But of course the other key factor for me is having self control.  There is really nothing wrong with having a couple of cookies once in a while.  Problem is I never stop at just a couple.

But this weekend I am determined to stick by my rules! If anyone is reading this pray for me to make it through the weekend.
