I'm having another bad self-image day. I feel so fat and I just really hate myself for what I ate yesterday. I ate chips, my evil trigger food, even though I vowed not to.
All day today I've been having a battle with myself about my feelings about myself. I am so impatient to lose a little weight. My clothes feel tight. I hate how I feel. I beat myself up about it.

Food Report
Well, not an awful day, but not a complete success either.
B-waffles w/light syrup and a mango
L-mariinated chicken breast, mashed potatoes, mixed veggies
S-handful of chocolate chips, pear
D-2 tacos, rice, beans, some chips
Reflections of the food today: My goal is to be trigger free. No chips, no candy, no cereal. During lunch, everyone else was eating chips (2 kinds) and I didn't have any.

That was really hard! I really wanted some.
I kept saying things t...
