Changing my attitude...

Weight: 163.4
Workout: Weight Circuit- 3x15, bike for 30 minutes
Food Diary:
Breakfast: Bagel with light cream cheese
Snack: Cheese cubes
Lunch: Taylor ham with egg and peperjack cheese sandwich
Dinner: Left over Hamburger Helper
Desert: Massive quanties of Athens finest booze

I refuse to be upset about the fact that I drank WAYYY more than I should have last night while in Athens. Half of being healthy is your outlook and I deserved a good time with a friend I rarely get to see. It's not all about denying yourself pleasures and so mentally I needed a night of fun in my favorite college town. Will I be doing it again in the near future? Most certainly with the football season upcoming. However, hopefully, I will be more cautious in what and how much I am drinking. But the best thing I can do right now is accept my night and move on. Dwelling is sure to add on the pounds!

For future reference: Calorie Counts!
Bud Light: 110 calories per 12 fl oz
Miller Lite: 96 calories per 12 fl oz
Coors Light: 102 calories per 12 fl oz
Michelob Ultra: 73 calories per one bottle (which I'm guessing is smaller than the others. Bastards!)
Blue Moon: 171 calories per fl oz (I will not be ordering this again!)
Miller High Life: 143 calories per fl oz (whoa champagne of beers...another to steer clear of!)
Reisling: 270 calories per 6 fl oz (figures since its my favorite wine!)
Champagne: 163 calories per 6.5 fl oz (be careful during wedding season!)
Bloody Mary: 123 calories per 6 fl oz
Rum & Coke: 133 calories per 6 fl oz (explains that freshman 15, eh?)
LIT: 275 calories per 6 fl oz (ouch....)

All empty calories that tend to make me binge eat everything in sight. But soooo much fun. It really is about a balance that I'm not sure I will ever find!

Erin. Leave it to you to calorie count alcoholic beverages. Now I see why all my friends drink Mich Ultra and I am the only one holding a Miller.

I really think the Mich Ultra bottle is smaller though so it's really probably close to the same! They are cheating!
