Tonight I went to a Greek food festival.  As you might expect, that goal of having a whole week of not going over my calories at all did not come true.  I will start again fresh another week– this week it was not meant to be.  With that said, the food was amazing and my family and I had a great time.  It is impossible to stay within my calorie intake at a food festival.  Especially when I love gyros.  And these were some of the best gyros I have ever had.

Now the real, real test comes now and for the rest of the night.  Because what I want to do now is open a bottle of wine and hang out for the rest of the night.  Inevitably, what comes with that is usually more eating.  I keep going back and forth in my mind between saying, “screw it, I went over, might as well enjoy the rest of the night” and “I know I went over, but I don’t have to turn what was a nice night into a gluttonous mess.”
