You name it... I ate it...

... and I don't even have a good reason as to why... and why am I writing this blog about my most recent lapse in food intake? Because I am insisting on "owning" my mistakes as well as my successes... It's the only way I believe that I can be accountable for what I am doing.

Oh, I could go on about my day today... as if last night didn't happen. No one would ever know... except me. However, that is not how I am... so here I am spilling my guts...

Last night... well, let me preface this by saying work yesterday was unbelievable. Things are happening there that... just should not be happening in the year 2008! Having said that... I was not in the best mood last night so BF decided we would go out to dinner. Which was nice, by the way.

After dinner, arrived home... and we began relaxing and watching the new episodes of Prison Break.... and that's when my demise began.

Was I hungry? No.. in fact, I was full from dinner... but I wanted something sweet... just a little nibble I thought... So I had a small rice krispy treat.. only 90 calories... no harm there.

Prison Break (first two episodes) made me nervous... suspense was killing me... so what did I do? I grabbed something else... and then something else... and before I knew it... I had eaten WAY more than I needed to and all because of a suspenseful show and nothing to do with my hands?

Perhaps. However, I believe there is an underlying culprit. I am a tad depressed. I am a tad sad. I am a tad overloaded at work and I believe... that I let that take over my sanity last night.

Now having "owned" my behavior of last night... Having written it down here... I, am hoping I will somehow forgive myself... for that lapse... and I will pick myself up today... dust myself off... and continue on the most amazing lifestyle journey change that I have ever been on...

It's 7:45 a.m. and so far ... so good!

Of all the things I've learned in my life, the most important is that when it all comes down to the very core of life, what matters most is your family. Love them, hold them close, let them know how you feel because when life brings turmoil and chaos, family is what counts.
