Cheat day
Well, Saturday was the big day. My instructions were to basically eat and eat a lot. Didn’t matter what it was, just get in a lot of food. I kind of explained why in my earlier post. Was I nervous, yes, I didn’t want to undo all the hard work that I had put into my prep so far, but in the end I always follow my instructions well. Not to mention ‘logically’ I understood the need for this even though mentally it sucked LOL. So off I went, chowing down on Saturday….I videoed a lot of it and will put a clip of it together…only because it was pretty funny. The day started of with homemade Belgian waffles. I got down one..it was a biggie though 
I also ate some monkey bread with it. This is basically biscuit dough covered in brown sugar and butter and baked. My kids thought this breakfast was great LOL. As everyone that knows me, knows that I love candy. Here is where my day started to go down hill. The candy started to be eaten…now when I say candy I mean all kinds: starburst, chocolates, and by far the worst- I made crack. Crack is the yummiest thing ever. It is saltine crackers that have been covered in brown sugar and butter (that have made a toffee coating) with choc and pecans. This is put in the fridge to set and broken in pieces. This did me in. But not until I managed to have about 1 cup of rice with chicken(chinese food). After that, I had plans to go to dinner with my brother and sister-in-law. I swore that I was going to get a nice big cheeseburger. When we got to the restaurant, Erik was eating out with other friends from our forum at the same time up in Canada, and we were all communicating back and forth. See this whole time Erik has been saying what a pathetic eater I was and I had been telling him that he would regret the decision to give ME a full day cheat. So there was some smack going back and forth. ok, so back to the dinner. Chili cheese fries were ordered and I ate a few of those. Then the burger came….I had like three bites and thought…that is it…I am going to die. LOL So I sent him a picture of what I had eaten and everyone was laughing at me. Overall it was a real blast. We left the restaurant and came back home…where I have to admit…I had more starburst…oh my tummy. So, how many of you are surprised by my eating LOL….wait till you here how much weight I put on.
