What a spectacularly crappy eating day!
Oct 15 2008 23:25

I started out well. I had very good intentions of behaving all day. Breakfast was the usual 285 calories of cereal, flax seed, and milk. Lunch time I had 2 apples @ 130 calories (in hindsight, that must've been the problem right there- I should've eaten a real lunch). Then in the afternoon I picked up the bag of chips that I told myself I would not touch, and I touched them. A lot of them. I ate probably 1/2 big bag of Lays chips, maybe more.

Then I felt really awful about what I'd gone and done.

No time to dwell on it though, as I had to pick my kids up from school- my oldest had 2 soccer games in a community that was a hour and a half drive away. By the time the games were done and we got back to the city for supper, I still wasn't hungry. Which was a good thing, because even if I was, I still wouldn't have eaten, just to try to keep as close to my daily intake goal as possible.

I estimate my chips feast to have cost me somewhere around ...what?. I dunno...800, 900 calories?

I always try to look at the positive side of it, and here's what it is: the chips are gone! Yeah!! Actually, there was still a little bit left in the bag, but I was so disgusted with myself afterwards, that I threw the rest out (a definite first for me! I have been known to open the bag and lick it clean!! lol)

Here's to back on track tomorrow because there's no more chips in the house! Woohoo!! Goooooo team!

- side note- in the spirit of complete honesty and disclosure, after the salty chips I started eyeing the cookies and figured I'd already blew the day- what's one cookie? :S
