Rough last few days

// July 3rd, 2011 // Healthy Food Choices, Journal

Wow, amazing how easy it is to slide. I haven’t gone crazy, haven’t started eating Ice Cream Sundaes, but I feel a little out of control the last few days. Like I said, I might only be 20-30% over calorie budget, but to be honest I just haven’t been paying a lot of attention the last few day and that can be dangerous. Of course, I haven’t actually been weighing in yet, so there’s no real way to tell.

The true course for me is to start being more attentive about what is going into my mouth. For instance, yesterday I had an awesome crab cake salad from the Cafe, and I think it was probably very healthy but I also had a muffin, that wasn’t bad, but it had a dollop of frosting that set the taste of sugar back into my head. For me, once I get sugar out of my system it’s easy to leave it alone, so I need to make sure over the next few days I stay away from temptation to eat even healthy things that might be sweet.

Last night, we went to Paxton’s and I had the club wrap (without bacon), but I had the chili with it. I also forgot that they served it with fries and actually ate 4 or 5 of them before letting Vickie take them away. Neither one is a huge issue, but I kind of felt stuffed last night and I don’t want to get into the habit of eating large meals. I need to spread food out, rather than lumping it together, but sometime life doesn’t work so nicely.

Once again, pray for strength and keeping it in the forefront of my mind. I think we are going to be approaching the gym very soon, so pray that they are open to an agreement.
