Erik the Gutshrinker: Too much restaurant food

Too much restaurant food

I ate out twice yesterday for work: lunch at Willies (burger and fries!) and dinner at Cheesecake Factory (soup, bread, and some fried artichoke hearts). I also drank some diet soda for the first time this week. At least I stopped eating before 7:30pm and stuck to my eating times.

Now that its the weekend I know I'll be tested. We're going to a b-day party tonight at a friends house and have Courtney's party tomorrow. However, despite the potential windfall of candy and other lucious delights that have captivated my belly for years, I am confident that I'll conquer these demons this weekend and limit my intake of crap to a minimum.
