MERCYME's CalorieKing blog

Saturday, Aug 25 2007 - Blah, Glad Yesterday is OVER

View MERCYME's food & exercise for this day

I totally pigged out last night....And, as I did it, I really did feel awful. I can't believe how SALTY the pizza I ate, tasted. I have to say, it wasn't even good. And certainly not worth the calories.

So, today, I wake up, feeling a bit salt bloated from the 'za, and a tad guilty. But ready to face today with renewed motivation. While I try to give myself one day each week for a splurge.....I just hate it when I over do my splurge. I have to say, it's so darn easy to over do the splurge. For pete's sake, you can over do a splurge with just one piece of pie. But, I'll keep this all in perspective....as it's important that I do.

I'm hoping that as I travel along this heallthy lifestyle journey, that I want less and less to "splurge" on nasty, junkie foods. I see this journey similar to my non-smoking journey. As I have more non-smoking days between me and the cigarettes, the less appealing they seem to me. Last night, as I visited with my brother and sister-in-law (who smokes), I did sit there in "want" of a cigarette. I was even a bit jealous that she could have one, and I couldn't. BUT, I'm soooooooo glad that I didn't cave in and ask for a "drag" or to bum one. Instead, I ate two pieces of pizza. Okay, I caved into the "fat" monster, but I'm so glad I didn't cave into the "nicotine" monster.

One demon at a time....I suppose. So, let's make today a GOOD day!!
