This weekend was the first weekend I have splurged in 7 weeks or since the new year. My cousin Patrick and his bride from South Korea celebrated their recent wedding in Georgia with all of their family and friends. We had a great time and I decided to allow myself some freedom from being so strict with foods and I feel good about it. I did have my share of treats and heavier foods, but that's ok. I am finding that if I don't allow myself these special occasions, it can be very hard to stick a new lifestyle with healthy eating. We had a great time and I love my family! We have so much fun together.
