You know how I said...wait, did I ever say this...that I eat clean six days a week and have one cheat day? Other people on my fitness thread use similar strategies. Some have one cheat treat during the week and one cheat meal. I usually don't feel the need for a cheat treat during the week.
And then today I melted down and ate...wait for it...those french fried onion thingies that you put on top of green bean casserole.
I'm not even sure why they were in my house. It's not like they're a basic food group I try to keep handy around here. And yet, I pulled open the cupboard door to look to see if I had any juice boxes to send with the kids for learn to ski day tomorrow.
No juice boxes, but there on the shelf were those onion thingies. And I stood there and ate them right out of the can. Declan joined me. And then I ate a little popcorn that is drizzled with chocolate. Sweet salty. Sweet salty. Love that. Why did I stop? Finn asked me if I was going to eat the rest of the container.
"Um, no, son, I am not." Ick. Nothing like being busted on a binge.
Workout: Rest day
Food (I haven't tracked calories)
Breakfast: two eggs, two pieces gluten free toast (only the heels were left and they looked small until I started eating and realized they were sizable heels so I didn't eat them all)
Snack: Blueberry Trio bar (which the little seeds of got all stuck in my teeth at work--I need to start carrying floss)
Snack: Apple
Lunch: Wolfed down at 2:45pm. Leftover porkchop, rice, squash.
Mad munching: onion things, popcorn
Dinner: Fettucine Alfredo Almost. It's really called that. It's a low cal version of the real deal. It's very more-ish.
Can anyone say "lack of vegetables" about my day???
Off to bed. Workout in the AM. Ski lesson planned for tomorrow. Traction planned for tomorrow night. Sounds exciting, I know.
If Dave had been there, he would have happily joined you in your binge...actually, so would I! Just wait til you see what we had for dinner...
