How I was eating 3000+ calories a day.

I ate alot today, more than I have in a good long while. I think it is the "in my head I am taking a break thing" I was pretty concious of it. I had some really bad pasta and a foot long subway sandwich (which I haven't had in months since I started IE). I was aware I was doing it and managed to pick thigs that weren't that horrible. I am totaled it to about 2300 calories today. I think I average about 1500 to 1700 so that is alot. I kinda feel like I ate all the stuff I had been craving. Next week I think we're going to limit my "break day" to just my meal at work and one meal on saturday and not the whole day. I also know how I was eating 3000+ calories a day. I had a muffin for breakfast. Normally it would have been potatoes, sausage, toast and so on, and then lunch and then a big dinner. I would say all of those are about 1000+ calories each.

The othing thing is I feel like I really don't want anything else for the rest of the night.

Well I got back on track with the walking. 7 miles in 2 days is alot compared to where i started from and would be nice to knock out 10 miles by sunday (the end of my work out week). Well on 3fc I have noticed how bad High Frucose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is. So I had some lamb to cook and wanted some flavor. So instead of the marinade (which has HFCS) I bought I put some olive oil, rosemary and thyme in a pan and heated that then added the lamb. A little salt and pepper on both sides. It was probably the best lamb I have ever cooked. I think I am going to give the un-used stuff to my family and finish up the rest. Or we'll see. Something else that happened yesterday. I take the bus from NY to NJ to go home and there is a long escalator to get to the bus top. Easily 20-30 feet.....and the escalator wasn't working. I walked up without stoping. I didn't feel like I was going to die and at the top I didn't stop I kept moving to get to where I had to go. So I realized...

Can't stop Won't stop

So I'm about 2 lbs away from my monthly goal.  I haven't worked out in about a week, but I have been on plan for 3 days after the visit to my parents. I've realized the most important part of losing weight is staying focused.  If you fall off the wagon get up. If you are tilted to the side, get straight, but keep going.  The worse thing you can do is stop trying.  Over all I only lost 2 lbs, but I recovered from the bad weekend and my period came so all the days I stayed on plan meant I didn't have this huge gain. Stupidly proud of myself. Something else weird happened this week. I usually drink ice coffee, but its pricey, so I bought starbucks pre-made ice coffee.  I ended up having this weird sugar headache.  I ate food, thinking I wasn't eating enough.  After 2 hours I had a pack of oreos and it went away after about 40 min. The next day I had no coffee and no issues.  It makes me think there is something with the starbucks coffee...
