Cheat Day Damage Control
I think I'm going to have to classify today as a cheat day. I didn't start out that way, but I wound up about 1200 calories over my limit anyways.

So, I have a job where I'm allowed to set my own hours, as long as I meet my production goals. I didn't rest well last night, and I stayed in bed until almost 10:00 this morning.

Sugar?
I only recently (past few weeks) started to track my sugar- I was tracking sodium before, but when I wasn't seeing the results I expected, I thought that sugar might be the problem so I switched it. Sure enough, I had no idea some of the things that have sugar in it! And the amount of sugar you can have compared to carbs…

...paved with good intentions...
I have great intentions...but, alas, I do not have the strength or determination to carry them through to completion. I am tired of trying to follow a 'diet'.
