Awww…..emotions….now??!!
Alright, I was really riding a high for a few days….feeling good about my workouts and such…even this morning doing shoulders, and arms I felt great (and again later doing my cardio) and then….something just snapped……
I can’t explain it, though I have some ideas on why this is coming over me like this. Its one of those, "oh, no I just need to cry feelings…" no specific reason, but definately sent me running to the i -c-e-c-r-e-a-m (it doesn’t look as bad if I spell it that way) and then after eating a scoop I had a real reason to cry…..I had been clean for three days and in one moment - not - UGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!
I’ll regroup and the extra fat is not the end of the world, but the dairy takes three days to get out of the ol’ system……so pics this week should be a bit under impressive.
Okay….so for me it is the issues of the heart….when my heart is sad my stomach is empty apparently….or maybe my tastebuds are needing something, whatever it is….when that is out of balance, my diet suffers. The good news here is, if I can get victory over this, I can write a book, hope it helps others and enjoy the financial benefits by tanning on the beach somewhere exotic (in between workouts, of course) and enjoying all my perfectly balanced meals prepared by a personal chef……
For now, it is water to flush this dairy out and an evening walk … uphill…..carrying weight….lots of it….

Girl, you are such a positive thinker, being able to swing your mishap into glory. I’ll buy your book.
You know that last week was crap for me. And well today being Mondy I thought I was off to a good start…but the emotions ate 3 donuts. Yep, that’s right. 3. blah. I wonder if men have to put up with this sh*t.

With any diet, you have to realize that there will be pitfalls. As with life, they are inevitable. The thing to remember? It’s not the end of the diet, and one setback does not equal total failure. I am faced with nasty, fat-laden lunch meetings every so often, and instead of crumbling under the pressure, I just make the best of the situation…small portions and ensure that I take in healthy stuff that night back at the hotel. Sounds like you did the same: only one scoop and you already are enacting the contingency plan.

I’d buy your book.
For me-I realized I need to let myself feel the pain instead of numbing myself up and compensating by eating. I cried for the longest time yesterday and the pressure is definitely gone.
Good luck!
