Why, Why Why...
 
Why do I do this to myself?

So this morning I weighed in at 152. 20 lbs. gone!!! Yay!!!

I was really busy this morning and didn't eat breakfast. By 12:30 I was starving and ate:

A sesame bagel with copious amounts of cream cheese
A chai latte
Half a chocolate bar

That's like 2/3 of my calories for the day. And we're going to a friend's house for dinner. Yikes.

Moral(s) of the story: Eat breakfast. Do not eat lunch at coffee shops. Do not delude yourself into thinking that you can "eat whatever you want" and maintain your weight loss.

Auggghhhh!

One day shouldn't kill you. I would say not to be so hard on yourself and to pick up again tomorrow. Sometimes days like this happen and you can only learn from them, understand where you went wrong and try again tomorrow. (But maybe avoid dessert at your friends house and enjoy the rest of the meal. Or not. Either way you shouldn't be too hard on yourself. :) )

My friend Eileen just had the same thing happen to her. She hit BK and had a whopper. I told her just to chillax and start over tomorrow. I also told her i would pay her to burp on me. lol. Good thing she is a net friend and didnt take me up on the offer. lol.

Chin up chica. We all bend. Don't let it ruin your mojo.

I've ate pretty bad today myself. And I just reached my 10% today. Meh, it's just one day, tomorrow's a new day.

Here we go again 09-12-2008 04:44 PM

Oh is this confession time? I had a burrito and guac today. I did limit myself but still had 5 chips. lol Today I'm glad I bumped up my calories.

I have had chocolates that Chris hid from me. I added them into my calories but still... BAD TAYLOR

eh...so you screwed up...take it easy tomorrow. And remember, breakfast is the most important meal of the day...because without it lunch is a disaster waiting to happen.

Oh yeah, I've eaten at a coffee shop before too. I used to get TWO slices of Lemon PoppySeed bread and a soy vanilla latte. lets see, thats about 1200 calories, in one meal. yikes. It's all good though. tomorrow's a new day. And who knows...maybe your friend will make something health concious :)

Write that down somewhere where you will see it first thing in the morning, and use this experience to motivate yourself to do what you need to do.
