Yesterday was a hard day for me. It was my daughter's birthday and we were taking her all over the place. We ate a LOT of crap yesterday, but I did my best to mitigate the caloric damage. I think I did well.
In the morning, I impulsively grabbed a brownie. I caught myself after two bites the chucked the rest.
I took a nap in the late morning with the girls, then we woke up and went out. We stopped by Starbucks, and I got a tea. We also stopped a McD for a snack for hubby and I got nothing.
For lunch, we went to an Italian restaurant. I had a big helping of salad, chicken/pasta/veggie dish, ONE (and only ONE) breadstick, unsweetened iced tea, and one scoop of chocolate gelato.
We walked around the mall afterwards. This was my BIGGEST success yesterday. We stopped to get hubby a drink, and she begged us for a cookie. We don't go out too much, and it was her birthday, so we let her have what she wanted. We each bought a small cookie, and hubby ordered an icee (350+/- kCal) and the guy got the order wrong. He handed hubby a coke, and he wanted a cherry. So, as we're walking away, the guy says "Do you want the coke one anyway? I'm just going to throw it out." Coke, my favorite flavor of icee...how I wanted thee...but I said no. And I only ate a few bites of my cookie.
Grandparents wanted to take her for ice cream. I sighed when I heard this. I didn't want to be put in that position. But I was good and ordered a single scoop of low-fat frozen yogurt with fruit on top.
I ate half my daughter's left over fettucini alfredo (about .5 cup) because I was starving by 9:30PM when we finally went home.

Today is not so good. I got bad news, was up and out of the house doing store inventories at 7AM, and had an argument with my boss. I keep emotionally eating, then catching myself. I've had three or four bites of seven or eight different crap foods.
