A co worker and I have ordered lunch from a chinese restaurant, and I order broccoli/chicken and sub the rice for extra broccoli. Well, stupid me I was walking by the cookies we have in the office and grabbed a christmas tree cookie that is literally no more than 1 inch big, if that!!! And this co worker says "oh you won't eat rice but you'll eat that cookie" I could have kicked myself. I don't know what posessed me to pick that cookie up? And now I feel this horrible guilt of eating that and being called out on it!!!!!!
I really hate it when people comment on slipups etc. My ex's mother used to continually pick at me for stuff, weven if I'd allowed myself teh calories. She thought I was on a diet, therefore should only eat carrot sticks and lettuce. One day she got me so mad with her 'Should you be eating that?' type comments I snapped and told her thanks for reminding me about my diet, I could have really slipped there and ended up looking like her (She was a BIG woman). She soon shut up after that. It was mean, but I felt I deserved one jab.
Forgive yourself, and move on. One cookie is just that, I'm tempted by a bowl of crisps hubby has left on the sideboard, but so far, so good!
Hey, one cookie is a whole lot better than a bowl full of rice. You did good and should be proud. It'd take way more willpower to resist the rice with chinese food, which go hand in hand to me, than one cookie. Who cares what your idiot co-worker says.
thanks everybody, I do feel better about it now. Like you said it's only 1 cookie!! And this morning I was down another pound, so I don't think I made such a bad choice after all!!
I had someone comment on my "greasy" breakfast this morning. Bacon and hard boiled eggs. I coulda screamed! I hate being in the elevator on the way up from the cafeteria with people who are hungry and feel the need to comment!
