Effective Weight Loss - Well it wasnt as bad as I thought with Our Outta Town Guests

Well, our friends left just yesterday. And yes, I did some pretty good splurging. We went to Hollywood one day and I proceeded to eat a Double Burger with Onion Rings and a huge Cupcake for desert. And then had a Sonic Burger later for dinner !! ;(
Also, we drank some beer around the pool and cooked out hamburgers and steak.

But hey this was sort of like a vacation for my wife and I. But in all honesty, it wasnt really too bad. Mainly because I got back into my running the last two days our friends were here. Once I hit the pavement I know I am good to go.

So today I am back on my regular diet. I will have a Cliff Bar and fruit for breakfast and then maybe a lean ham sandwich for Lunch. And for dinner I think I will cook up some lean turkey burger. So it all good as things get back to normal.

I want to stress to many of you that splurging is not necessarily a terrible thing. In some regards it can be actually beneficial. So as long as you dont over do it !! :) Why can it be beneficial ?? Well, if you work towards a day where you can splurge a little bit , it can be a motivating factor. Say you tell yourself ' I will run for three days in a row and eat fresh fruit and vegetables during this time. And if I do this on the fourth day I can go out and split a Pizza with my Wife'.

Doing this not only gives you motivation but it helps you keep pace in living a healthy lifestyle and rewards you for doing so.

When you do this just be sure not to over due it. And I would NOT do it more than once a week.
Remember, Life is all about keeping the proper balance. And if you keep a good balance having some fun in your Life is definitely a Plus !!

Cheers
