Rough Day

I had a long 12 hour shift today. One issue after the next with minimal breaks for anything normal like food or a minute to sigh and collect my pieces of sanity off the floor before I lost them completely. A lot of running around and unplanned circumstances ended up making me unintentionally skip lunch. I ended up having to buy a lunch (eating out...something I've tried to avoid as much as possible lately since I'm watching my weight) and I had to guesstimate the calories on the sandwich I ate. Still though, I chose a Turkey Hill Made to Order tuna wrap... but five minutes beforehand I was closer in distance to my favorite fast food meal... Burger King fried fish sandwich with pickles and a mint oreo shake! So instead I built a healthier version for myself and ate that for lunch with an unsweetened iced tea. Then for dinner I was tempted to eat like crap. But again... stopped myself. Instead of eating ate bunch of ice cream like I wanted to, I tasted a spoonful to satiate the desire to enjoy the flavor, if only for a moment. After dinner, I was under my calories count so I reached for a Quest bar and looked at it and sat there asking myself if I was truly hungry.... I wasn't. So I put the protein bar down and decided to end my logging for the day. I had so many opportunities to fail today but even though I was emotionally stressed from work, I ended up doing halfway decent!
