Fluffers Nightmare
Tonight I went to a Bat-Mitzvah party on a cruise ship, that went out onto Lake Champlain for 3 Hours. The ship had 3 levels, someone was hosting an informal party on the the top level, their was a HS prom on the middle level, and the Bat Mitzvah party on the lower level. This was my biggest "cheat" meal in quite some time.
My personal achilles heel is a good appetizer. This party had several, and I had multiple helpings. Dinner was a buffet, and mine was filled with carbs and greens. Great for a runner, and someone in a recovery week, not great for watching my weight. Even with 1 beer, my meal wasn’t that horrible, that is until dessert. I couldn’t stop at 1, or 2, I had 3 different desserts. A chocolate mousse, a whipped cream parfait, and mango and berry crepes.
I’ll have some control over tomorrow, but the Bar/Bat mitzvah season at our synagogue continues weekly through 7/5.

You ran a MARATHON, you deserve to indulge!!! The desserts (MY personal achilles heel) sounds amazing… definitely a Fluffer’s Nightmare!!
Enjoy the month-long(plus) Bar/Bat mitzvah season - sounds like you’ll be eating well for awhile (lucky!)

Don’t be TOO hard on yourself, Michael! You did ok; atleastit wasn’t half the dessert buffet, LOL. But, seriously, cheating (and binging, in my case; but I’m getting better!) is all good every now and then.
