Candy, and Fried Food and Drinks, Oh My!

Each of these things by themselves isn't a horrible thing. However, when you put them all together in one day, it doesn't exactly aide in weight loss! Yesterday started off innocent enough. I had a decent breakfast, had lunch with my daughter, and enjoyed a field trip with her class. Then came Homecoming. We went to the Homecoming parade and the kids in the parade were super generous with the candy. And, they seemed to all know and like my kids, so they threw extra candy at them. The kids filled their pockets, then they filled my pockets, then we took it all home. I'm a sucker for Tootsie Rolls and Smarties, and there was plenty to go around. After the Homecoming game, some friends and I went out to get a drink. I only ordered one, which I suppose is good, but that still didn't help my already fragile calorie count for the day. It had been a little while since I had eaten, so naturally we thought that along with our drinks, we should order some appetizers. A variety of appetizers. And of course we shared them, so we all had a little of this and a little of that. Yesterday will clearly be chalked up to a day of good friends but poor choices.
