The Streak is About to End

A couple of my college buddies are coming into town tomorrow for a weekend of moderate debauchery. So that means that calories from liquor alone will probably be the same this weekend as I consume in food for an entire day. I'm going to try to be good, but I am not going to let dieting get in the way of having a rocking good time this weekend. Tomorrow will probably be okay, but Sunday is ::hopefully:: going to be off the charts. Of course, my tolerance is so low these days that I might only make it up to three beers before I check out on the whole drinking thing. Either way, I know that I am about to take a two day mental break.

I am going to keep track of everything and enter it into fitday. I won't be doing it all day long, probably one or two logs when its over to see what the damage is.

I am really proud of myself for making it 37 days in a row without going over. That's 10% of 2008 that I have kept my goal! And it will be 40 total days. That's a lot of days of eating right. Not enough to knock out 23 years of doing it wrong, but a damn good start. I like keeping the streak in the sidebar. There have been a few days that I wanted to go over, but I didn't because I knew I wanted to get to at least 36 days before I had an off day. If I can go about 36 days between one or two off days, that would mean I'd be on goal about 94% of 2008. Now that would be a 2000% increase over 2007. Holla.

After this weekend, there are two challenging events in the nearing future. Valentine's Day date with the BF, and spring break in March. I think spring break will be the tougher of the two. Going home usually means filling up on Mexican food. And no family eats like my family. After this weekend, it's back to one day at a time.
