Weekend of Gluttony - Weigh in # 24
This weekend was the weekend of gluttony with food and money. I over spent on my calorie allowance as well as my budget allowance. They pretty much went hand in hand. I decided to get my hair cut and once I got there my stylist convinced me to get highlights and then buy some styling products that were $24/each. I left two hours later and over $200 poorer. Stupid Ulta. Although my hair does look fabulous. Anyway, then I promised my roomate that we were going to get pedicures together and I would pay. I was trying to do something nice for my roommate but it was not very nice for my bank account. Why do I always do tha? Put myself in a tight spot just to seem charitable or nice. I need to learn to say no to myself. Well the stress of my over spending was starting to cause anxiety. Especially since I haven't balanced my checkbook yet. I don't know want to know what the damage is but not knowing causes me to stress. And what do fat people do when they stress children? That's right...they eat and eat and eat. What else to fat people do when they stress children? That's right they don't workout, they lie around and they bitch and moan.
Staying on a budget is a lot like losing weight. It takes discipline, self control and not giving in to your desires. I've got the losing weight thing down pretty well now. It's almost habit. Now it's time to pull those purse strings and say no to my inner child that keeps screaming "gimme, gimme, gimme." I have a house now. I can't keep spending like I did when I was in the apartment and had a lot more discretionay money. I need to say no to myself and focus on the other ultimate goal besided losing weight. Being debt free.
Especially since this behavior is detrimental to me losing weight. "NO BRATTY MARY, NO! What use is it if my hair is fabulous and my toes look fabulous but I'm still fat and still in debt? Makes no sense I tell you.
Well I'm off to admire my hair in the mirror one last time before I attempt to balance my checkbook and pull all my hair out in the process Then I will curse my cute toes when I see the end balance amount.

p.s. When I actually typed out all that I ate it wasn't that horrible. More than usual yes but swine like, no. I keep my fingers crossed that my bank account fairs as well.
