Been a long time since I have done that. Baked a lemon loaf cake from scratch to "take to my parents for dinner"- right, really for me. Had 2 pieces, felt nauseated, had to throw the rest in the garbage or might have eaten all of it.

At least mom and dad did not know what they missed.

I truly know what a relapsing addict must feel like in the cold light of day. I feel really badly about it but must just forgive myself and hope the amount of sugar in it was not enough to trigger a craving.

Glad it made me sick, negative reinforcement is a good thing.

Honey, you and I must have been on the same page this weekend. My boo told me how much she wanted some chocolate chip cookies (you know the break apart kind). Well, I went ahead and bought them... yeah, 'cause SHE wanted them. Needless to say, I only baked 6 of them for us, but caught myself in full closet eating mode eating raw cookie dough in the kitchen while she was watching the football game. Ugh, why do I do this?!

Anyway, later last night, I took a lil' quiet time to kind of put things back into perspective for myself. I did some journaling to ask: Why do I allow negative self talk to creep up? Why do I have those days that I allow myself to be my own worst enemy. I soaked in the bath tub, did some reading and woke up this morning refreshed and ready to start anew!

Breakfast this morning was Special K with berries cereal and a small banana. I'm enjoying every drop of my cup of coffee with fat free sweet cream creamer. Today, lunch & dinner will be Subway since I have to work the 2nd job.

I am so happy to see such success happening on a daily basis. Y'all totally ROCK! That's what keeps me coming back here every. single. day!

Make it a great day healthy peeps
