I hope everyone had a safe and fun Canada Day/ July 4th long weekend!! I know I did :). My fiance and I had all weekend off together, which considering the fact that he works shift work and never has the same days off, doesn't happen very often. It was really nice to not only have a weekend off together, but it was a long weekend at that!
We did lots of fun stuff, and had a great time together, but the long weekend did unfortunately have its downfalls though...namely my falling off the wagon HARD! :s See, Friday morning, we got up with my fiance's daughter, and figured we would go Uptown to take part in all of the Canada Day festivities. I don't think I was quite prepared for what I would encounter...
Everywhere I turned, I could smell all kinds of different street meats (gotta love those 2$ sausages!), endless clouds of wonderfully sugary and delicious cotton candy, and this unbelievably enticing potato tornado thing that was just to DIE for! So yet again, my sense of smell was my Achilles heel :(. You guessed it, I caved, and even though I temporarily blacked out from all the sugar/carb intake, I can vaguely remember tasting one of everything lol. To make matters worse, I finished off a bottle of wine that night...and the next night too! (Hi, my name is Mae Maillet, and I am a winoholic).
So yeah, to sum it up, although I had a great weekend, my diet kind of took a huge kick in the nuts (Sorry diet! it totally was an accident! lol)! On a better note, aside from Canada Day itself, and the numerous bottles of wine ;), I did really well the rest of the weekend, and am back on track today! I didn't weigh myself this morning because I was a little too afraid, but I will tomorrow morning for sure, and will keep you guys posted!
By the way, anyone out there have any suggestions as to how to beat those awfully delicious smells??? I still haven't been able to really figure it out (obviously lol)!
Bye Bye for now!!
Miss Mae
