Mostly a success.
I say mostly because I did eat all the food I was supposed to eat, just not exactly when I was supposed to eat it. The point of the diet is to eat four times (3 meals and a snack) with the same amount of calories balanced throughout the day. And, really, this is my greatest struggle so thus, my greatest goal and the greatest appeal to being on a ‘diet’.
I woke up late, ate breakfast even later (pushing noon) and ran errands. They took longer than I thought and I should have planned for it, but I didn’t. I was so hungry and exhausted when I came back. I felt ready to eat anything from the cupboards or even stop at a place along the way home to grab something to eat. I would have easily scarfed down a sub or pita or mostly anything. This is where I am most in danger and where my problem lies. I let myself get so hungry I make bad choices because I want food and I want it fast.
I ate my schedule meal when I got home and felt satisfied without feeling overly full. I then went to a birthday party which I thought would be a breeze to avoid pitfalls because I don’t like cake. Except, they had icecream cake which is not really cake at all, but good and delicious ice cream, which I love. They also had favors of candy in baby jars (it was really cute). BE PROUD of me because I avoided all of the cake, icecream and candy. There was a moment where I was like.. oh, dude, it’s a kid’s birthday party, I should have a slice. People will wonder why I’m not! — But then I thought of how I would feel like I failed and noone really noticed anyway. It gave me moe time to wander around the party and talk to people.
So. Day 2. Success, mostly. I need to get better at timing, bu that’s the whole goal anyway. <3
