What's Your Weekend Weight Loss Downfall?
When the weekend comes around we tend to let our hair down and relax. Sadly, this usually means we relax on the discipline as well and as a result our weight loss goals go out the window.
Last night (Saturday) a friend of mine was doing a show at a local club and so my friends and I went along for support. We went out afterwards and had a great time and I didn’t end up getting home until 5am. I then slept in til 11am and for breakfast (or was it lunch?) I had left-over cold pizza because it was the only thing in the fridge! Not such a good day for this health fanatic.
I’d love to know what it is you do on the weekend that puts your weight loss or health goals under a bit of pressure. Do you drink? Go out? Pig out? Let us know.

| Cat said: | Without a doubt the reason my body isn't how I want it to be is because I go a little nuts on the weekend. I drink too much, wind up at Taco Bell and don't get enough sleep. It is really bad and a habit I am trying to kick. Cat |
| jamie too low said: | On the weekends I sleep in and then have a big friend breakfast - hash browns, eggs, bacon, sausages... the lot. It's bad but I don't do it that often. Can't cause too much harm - - right? |
| Francesca said: | I plan for the weekends to be a little bit of a cheat day so I make up for it during the week. It doesn't cause me much of a problem and I haven't noticed any bad habits creeping in like you have mentioned before RT. I think as long as it is controlled and not too naughty it'll be fine. |
| RT said: | Cat - you sound like quite the party girl. Jamie - That sounds so tasty to me right now. Fran - I really like this style of diet where you allow for some "mistakes". Very sensible. RT |
| Francesca said: | Thanks RT. It seems to work well for me. |
| Molly said: | I sleep in and then skip lunch. I just don't feel hungry in the mornings. I eat a big lunch though! :) |
| Elaine said: | My weekends are usually fine unless I have back-to-back meal dates (you know, breakfast with grandma, lunch with the inlaws, dinner with friends) -- which only happens maybe once a month. Otherwise, I have an easy time eating because I don't have to pack lunch, like I do on work days (or worry about eating out if I didn't have time to pack my lunch). I also have a lot more flexibility to work out, since I don't have to schedule it around my work day. I try to make at least one weekend day my day for a long, fun run through some new scenery. Or a long, scenic walk if I trained too much during the week. |
| Nessajane said: | Summer is much healthier for me because it involves competing at surf carnivals and there is no way I'm getting into that surf boat and battling those waves with a hangover and a full stomach. But when winter arrives, I can just veg out and drink a bit more and eat a bit more during those leisurely breakfasts and brunches. It's not ideal but then life's far too short to not enjoy. Shame training starts next week. Now, how quickly can I lose those extra 7kg I gained over the off season. And...where did my muscles go? Wish I could be good in the off season. |
| RT said: | Nice work Nessa. Good luck with the surfing season! RT |
