day of weakness
Thursday, March 10, 2011 at 8:47 AM filed under Diet & Nutrition postings
After my first bite of my greasy dinner last night, I decided that it's going to be a cheat night.
I don't think that things should work that way... I think that cheat night should be planned in advance. I'm definitely lacking in the self-motivation category, so i need help!!
I even splurged on a triple-chocolate frozen cake last night, and had more than one serving of that. I felt a bit bad afterwards, but I was awake and metabolizing for another 4 hours after I ate it. Last night I was too scared to even check out the nutritional content in the frozen cake, so I just called it a loss for the night, and that's all.
This morning, bravely, I googled the nutritional content, and to my surprise, it's a HEALTHY CHOICE!! 100 calories a serving, 4 grams of fat... now why did I throw out the rest of the cake?!?!!?
My 3 good things for today:
1) I am SO greatful for my mother sleeping over last night, I got to do something that I enjoy, and was confident that my little toddler was in good hands... and I got the LUXURY of a rare morning shower :) ... oh the little things we take for granted until we become single-mothers...
2) my support system / motivation on this website as per my weightloss goals
3) my support system physically surrounding me while I go through this transition period in my life
UPDATE:
had a wonderful light lunch, feel great.
hope there's no 3:30pm-dark-chocolate cravings
good day at work so-far
AND I am proud of myself that I didn't eat french fries last night or today! NO FRIES was my goal for this week, so thank you to Ticotease for pointing that out, I should be very proud that I am still on track for my goal :)
...it's just the calorie limits that i set, I've been completely surpassing them
