Day 8: Back Into The 116's

Mission accomplished. At least for now. I was at 116.5 this morning. I did have a few slip ups yesterday. Some chocolate covered almonds at the office. I skipped my afternoon granola bar as a way to compensate. I know it wasn't a fair trade but whatever. I also had some tortilla chips with the sandwich at dinner but other then those two misses I stuck to the plan. For snack last night before bed I had some carrots and a piece of string cheese.

Yesterday's eats:

• PBJ (235), Coffee (80)
• RF Cheese Its (150)
• Choco covered almonds (170)
• Yogurt (80)
• RB Sandwich with 1 slice of cheese (240), Tortilla Chips (140)
• String cheese (80), Carrots (30)

My oh my how it adds up! 1205 for the day. Damn chocolate almonds. I think the only reason I am writing out food and calories here is because I have stopped keeping my food journal and have been feeling a bit out of control lately. At times I am just compelled to visually see the words written out and the numbers attached to it. There is no pretending when you write it out and add it up. And when I do I inevitably feel piggish unless it was less then 1000.

I am going to try to stay on track and at least maintain for the rest of the week. I am going to happy hour Friday AND to dinner at a friends house on Saturday and already dreading my potential failure. As if I have no choice in the matter. I can choose to indulge or I can be good. It really is up to me although it sure doesn't feel like it when my hunger kicks in and I find myself impulsively devouring everything in sight.
