I went bonkers with treats last night; my wife brought home a few home made desserts from a gathering she was at. I guessed ~1000 calories. I went to the gym late last night and did the ARCTrainer for 2 hours. Plan to try to eat light day today, even though a key lime square is calling my name. One of my kids had a gathering yesterday also and after I left they wiped out all those desserts except the key lime squares. Key lime is one of my top choices in desserts; I am surprised it was the least popular with them. I even found some unfinished pieces cleaning up and they are squares around 2". I am really glad the kids wiped out a pie that seemed to be cream cheese mixed with whipped cream and chocolate chips and topped with a sugar glaze.

So I will work out Monday morning and weigh Tuesday, committed to make sure it is ~157 or maybe less. I think the 156 yesterday was a low spike, but maybe not. All those weights just under 160 could have been high spikes with some of the choices I was making. I am definitely bloated today; I can even see it in my fingers. My ring doesn't slide as easily..

EDIT - I think I guessed low taking 900 for yesterday's dessert splurge. I poked around for the key lime square and cheesecake (seems likely the pie has similar calories) and remembered I had a couple of finger pastries and a cookie also. I took one of the highest ones I could find for the key lime square (the home made ones are very sweet with crumbles and top and pastry bits throughout). It could have been closer to 1500. I might exercise without logging it tomorrow.
