Yes, food is just that. And my life is that.
Of course only I am to blame. It's so easy to point fingers, but even if it is partly justified, only you (or in this case, I) are responsible for your choices. But heck, it's so tough!
Let me explain. I have now been at 164-163 for three weeks. I have some good reasons and some not so good reasons for this. However, all that matters is that these days I find it hard to make healthy choices when it comes to food. And though I am much more self-controlled than I was before January, I still slack under pressure and then regret it later.
For people like me who have a love-love relationship with food, it is like a gambler driving by a big, shiny casino...irresistible. So when I a presented with rich, fatty options, I naturally gravitate toward those.
Last night I went to my friend's house for dinner. She paid extra attention to cooking a healthy and delicious meal (fresh market shrimp with a scrumptious sauce, an endive salad with avocado and grapefruit, and tomatoes with fresh basil and buffalo mozzarella). Everything was good for us, everything was fresh, but then there was the BREAD! I cannot stop myself from devouring a baguette and now I have ruined the negligible progress I had made yesterday, with which I still am not satisfied.
Okay, I've gone over time and need to leave for work. In any case, I was just going to say how I eat and am happy then have to begrudgingly haul bottom to ze gym and am very angry that I am not getting results anymore. Serves me for letting up on my challenge I guess. But I have prepared an extremely light lunch and breakfast so that tonight's BBQ won't have as much of an impact...
