Friday, Apr 20 2007 - BFL Week 4 Day 6
View NIKKI8's food & exercise for this day
Okay, guys. I have been so hungry the past 2 days. I don't know what is going on with me. 
I would eat my BFL portions of food and still be hungry. Then maybe get some fruit and still not be full. It is physical hunger--not psychological or emotional. I know the difference after so much experience with the other.
So I decided tonight to eat what I wanted. I just wanted to be full. Plus it is scrapbook night :inlove: My favorite night of the month where I get to hang out with my friends and do something I really enjoy. It is so fun.
So I decided this afternoon that I would have a free day and a half this weekend. I went to Qdoba absolutely starving and came out full. Plus I had candy and a coke (I never drink pop) at the scrapbook place.
The thing is I don't really feel guilty (at least not yet) since I decided this a head of time. It was not a slip or binge. It was a conscious decision.
Perhaps with the slips I have had this week I should not have done this. I don't know. Let's see, I had icecream one day this week and Peeps last night. I don't know, but I'm not going to worry about it right now. Maybe I'll feel differently in the morning.
BTW, I think you guys are right about having a no buying candy rule at the store. I was buying it planning to have it on free day. But that just sets me up for trouble. If I want it on free day, I will go to the store on free day. Thanks for that. I needed it.
Okay, so since I had a free night, my goal tomorrow is to not go hog wild like I originally planned. I am hoping that I won't since I indulged tonight already and I won't feel that desperation to taste everything. I hate that.

well im glad you enjoyed eating and didnt feel guilty about it. thats definately a great step in the right direction. you were hungry, you listened to your body and you ate. i think thats how its really supposed to be.

I think I need to invite myself along on scrapbook night! I so need to get caught up on mine. I think you did fine -- a planned indulgence is different than a binge, just make sure you adjust accordingly today. Have a great weekend.
