The past few days I haven’t been able to get enough sugar in me. The worst part is that I keep lying to myself about how, “this will be the last thing, once I have some ice cream/chocolate bar/licorice/scone/whatever-as-long-as-it’s-filled-with-sugar I will be SO done with sugar.”
LIAR!
Here’s a bit of perspective, Loey. You just last week spent about $300 in signing up with a dietician to help you work through your sugar cravings and achieve your goals. You received a very comprehensive plan, with more than enough food, but with some flexibility built in.
So, what the hell??!?!!? I mean, what’s going on in your weird little head that’s not allowing you to make even vaguely sensible decisions?? And aside from the caloric over-spend, have you thought about the actual monetary overspend?? ‘Cause remember, you’re currently heavily in debt??? Remember??!?!?!
I’m so irritated with myself right now. Let’s tally up the spend today;
Morning scone and cookie: $3.00
So-so lunch (both in tastiness, but also in healthiness): $15.00
Afternoon snack run: $5.00
So, 23 dollars of tummy-ache and remorse.
And the most shameful part?? That I went to two different stores to get enough sweets for my mid-afternoon binge. I haven’t done that for a long time, and I’m really upset about now that the sugar-high is fading.
This is the turning point (yes, yes, I know, for the 879th time…ugh…)
Tonight I cook some of the recipes that were suggested to have in my fridge for lunch and post-football. And I’m going to bed very early tonight.

I just surfed over to your blog from Glam, and am immediately putting it on my blogroll/reader. I know it's an uphill battle - all the time, but hopefully it won't always be as steep. So many people have said it to me, and it's true - don't beat yourself up too much. I'm sure your choices for a couple of days won't completely destroy your hard work. A dietician sounds fun though...if only I could afford one!
