damn, I did it again!
I'm screwed guys - I had vanilla ice cream last night. TWICE!
But could you have lost even more weight if you wouldn't have (assuming your trying to lose weight)?
I'm glad you recognize that now. Being overly restrictive has only ever led me to failure, and then feeling worse about myself.
Oh gosh, it took me forever to learn to moderate ice cream (still have difficult days). But something about giving myself permission to let go of all the restrictions and BS that I had convinced myself was necessary to be healthy, I started feeling an emotional weight lift. It actually made it easier to stick with the calorie restriction because I knew that if I wanted a cookie or a beer, I could have it. If it took me over calories for that one day, that's fine because I was on track the rest of the week.3 -

In spite of everything I've learned and read about foods since deciding to get healthy, the only thing that has really changed is the quantity I eat any given day, not whether the food is processed or not, by any definition.
And why the heck am I suddenly craving Twinkies at 9 in the bloody morning!?
Maybe it's all this banana talk? The original Twinkies introduced in the 1930s were filled with banana cream. They had to be switched to vanilla cream when bananas became rationed during World War II.
Oh yeah

It is, and dangerous as well. My wife, and my youngest - these two women can take chalk and water and make a AAA dessert out of it lol.3
