Holy Stomach Batman!

Yesterday was my birthday dinner. I had asked for "Thanksgiving" so that's what I got: pineapple filling, potato stuffing, turkey, sweet potato's with the crumbly sugar topping, spinach salad, and jumbo biscuits. It was so delicious. Also, since there was so much, mom and I had made a lot of it on Saturday, so the food was around most of the weekend. This means that I ate it most of the weekend!

I ate so much. Yesterday, I ate more in one evening than I had since January. In addition to all of that food, I had birthday ice cream cake. And then later that night I had some more stuffing. My stomach HURT. It was more than just a normal queasy stomach ache, it was almost like stabbing pains. Not pleasant. I took some tums and just tried to stay as still as possible to let it feel better. It didn't really feel that much better when I went to bed and even this morning, I feel queasy, but its getting better. I think I've learned my lesson though!!!

Let's just say that calorie counting was not in my immediate concern this weekend.....I haven't weighed my self since then, and don't plan on it! Even if I go up four pounds or so, I don't think that's going to be a "real" gain. The food had a lot of salt in it, and I'm assuming that a lot of it is going to be water weight. So I'll reduce my calorie level for the majority of the week and fix that straight away. And lots of water!
