Hi all,
So I have been working on losing weight since the end of Dec 2012 and so far lost about 12kg. I feel good, i look better, my clothes are all getting loose, people are starting to notice and so far everyone has been amazingly supportive. Things are good. And until now I haven't really binged. I have allowed myself a few treats but it's been controlled and I didn't feel like I had done anything wrong.
So, tonight I can't sleep, I had a short nap this afternoon and for some reason I just cannot sleep now, usually I don't have a problem even if I nap. So I finally decided to have some tea, I haven't had in ages because I have tried to cut sugar out a bit. But I figure it's not the end of the world. So I was looking for a bit of honey to put in the tea and found a chocolate bear I got for Xmas from someone, you know the kind that is hollow inside? I had eaten a little bit before but most was still there. I dunno, I just started eating it thinking, this is bad, I don't need this, I have to stop. Funny thing it wasn't even that good, I much prefer dark chocolate. Most of it was gone when I stopped and just felt silly.
So slipped, but what has me more worried is that I feel like I should be more upset with myself, but I just kinda feel silly and like it happened and I just have to move on. Logically I know it's no good to beat myself up, but I dunno, I thought my first mess up would feel like more of a big deal but I know it won't change that I am going to keep working on getting healthy and I know I just have to work harder in exercising this week.
So, is this a good attitude or am I being too easy on myself?
Ps. It's 12:56am and I still can't sleep, argh...
