My plan for today: No Crazy Binging!
 

This is my first day that I have considered going off plan for a special occaision. I did not do it for Xmas. I did not do it for New Years. But today is my daughters birthday and I would like to focus on her and eat cake with her and not think about me today. This is my favorite day of the year celebrating my favorite person and I feel like I can trust myself to let go a little. I have lost approximately 9 pounds since the 23rd of December.

My plan is to keep it under 1900 calories today. I wont have seconds. Maybe just a small peice of cake and some little snack things. Cross your fingers for me please.

I envy you being able to just have a small piece of cake! One bite, and I'd be off and running! Cheesh! I am celebrating today, however, because I fought with, and won, the impulse to drive either through MacDonald's and have some french fries, or stop at the super market to buy icecream! I decided, instead, to head home and have a cup of hot chocolate (sweetened with stevia) - though I've yet to make it, I was so jazzed to record my small success. Am making chicken and kale soup tonight, with loads of sweet onions and garlic! I might even chop up a potato to thicken in slightly. A potato is not so bad as long as it's not loaded with butter and sour cream, right? Good luck to you!

Lola that soup sounds delicious. And good job on the small victory at going hom to your healthy comfort food. That is a special moment and you did something really awesome!

So I ate a little cupcake, a grilled burger with fixings and not much else. I didnt go overboard but I was in a food coma for at least an hour afterwords and I felt terrible! Not guilty just sick sick sick to my stomach. :(

Learned my lesson I guess, my body is trying to tell me something I should probably listen, lol. Yuck. I'm actually excited to be eating my own healthy food again tomorrow. ...
