It was a bad bad bad day at work.... If I had more money saved I think I would have left it for good. I was so grumpy afterwards I talked myself into eating a bag of chips and ice cream, and six hours of movies. Then on the way home I thought to myself that life is full of bad days is one horrible 8 hours really enough to make me break all my good habits and hard work. I turned up the radio and sang along to whatever was playing and by the time I walked into my front door, I had made up my mind to go take it out at the gym. I am really glad I did because not only did I work up a good sweat, I was able to let the day go and just focus on kicking my ass. "Tomorrow is always fresh with no mistakes in it"I always have liked that quote from Anne of Green Gables and I have thought of it often on days just like today. Tomorrow can be a better day!

ReplyDeleteeveryone has a bad day. just so long as you don't allow yourself to continue the junk food all day every day is fine. we all have those moments when junk food just sounds good and you have to indulge a little (or a lot like me). besides consider it a reward for your gym attendance and healthy diet. AND going to the gym is great when you are feeling angry-upset-blue-etc. because you can use those feelings during your workout and then you work harder - and you feel great after. (this was long ;( sorry)
What kind of chips and ice cream were they? I hope you got the good stuff - I say if you are going to fall of the wagon for a day - make it worth it ;) Maybe next time just eat a cup of ice cream and a little bag of chips. Or frozen yogurt and those nasty baked chips would be a little healthier option. Oh, did I mention you should get a Jamba, I'm jonesing for one. Hang in there, today is another day!
ReplyDeleteSorry I guess that post was misleading. I did not indulge! But I am sure I will have a day here and there when I will.
ReplyDeleteI just started eating rice cakes, I don't know if I told you that but I love them. I know that they are not for everyone but they have some good flavors these days and they come in bite size, I don't know if this is a new thing or not but it was news to me.
ReplyDeleteI think I remember you telling me about the rice cakes. They have like a bananna flavor that I tried once and I liked a lot. I might have to keep some on hand for when I get the munchies!
