Today was a little bit nuts. It is my kid's birthday, so we let her pick what we'd have for dinner. She picked mountain man breakfast (sausage, potatoes, eggs, and cheese baked together) with biscuits and gravy. Man was it good. I definitely ate too much of that.
We also made her an Oreo ice cream cake, which was basically a pan of brownies with Oreo ice cream on top, topped with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and more Oreos. That was super delicious, too. I had a piece then shared another one with my wife.
So long story short, I ate a whole bunch today. I pretty much just let myself go. I also had a bowl of Trix cereal and a couple other things. We usually don't have sugared cereal in the house, but it's tradition that when a kid has a birthday they get to pick a box of sugared cereal. I did eat all of that after dinner, so the silver lining is that I did at least fast until dinner time. That's the one thing I've kept really consistent on.
We'll see what the consequence is to the scale tomorrow. Either way, I think it's OK to have a day like today every now and then. And I am still committed to my goal, and I still have every confidence that I will accomplish it. The key is to not get discouraged by a single bad day, or even a couple of bad days, or even a whole slew of bad days. All we can do is keep moving forward, never give up!! And if I have to fast a few more days to get back down, then that's what I'll do. Despite today, I've never felt more in control of myself than I do right now, and it feels awesome!
