The past several weeks there has been intermittent treating, but there has also been a conscientious effort to maintain control and substitute awesome things like cookies with less awesome but more healthy things like fruits and yoghurt.
And then the weekend hit.
My boyfriend and I finally had a housewarming party for our new apartment. We wanted to show it off to all our friends, finally. Clearly this was going to be a drinking party. Fail number one for me. Were there smart choices when it came to liquor? No. Anything was game. Instead of restricting myself to a couple of glasses of wine (honestly it would have just been a challenge to fit an entire bottle of wine into a couple glasses) or vodka soda, I grabbed anything and everything that was available to mix with my vodka. Mostly really sugary things like energy drinks and cranberry cocktail.
Bad. Very bad.
And I haven't even told you about the cookies and the cupcakes.
The first time we had a party and made cupcakes they were a huge hit. And so, ever since that first party, there have been cupcakes. People request that there be cupcakes before committing to the event. So cupcakes were made. And cupcakes were eaten during preparation. I also decided to make about 5 dozen cookies.
Well along with all the other appies that we made and the chips and veggies that were out, a lot of cookies and cupcakes were left. On the Sunday when I was hungover I decided that since the cookies were within reach, they would be excellent as a breakfast choice.
I went to the gym on Monday but as you know today is Thursday and I haven't gone back yet. After this confession, I think I have definitely shamed myself into going for a visit.
But I would so love a cookie right now!
