    I know the feeling. I was right on target for today and my daughter convinced me to go to Taco Bell. Boy did I blow it there. I guess there is always tomorrow and something to think about next time to help make a better decision.

    You have done well so far I see. One small slip will not loose the battle.

    But if you give yourself the "credit" for your walk, how many calories did you burn? These calories can be eaten "guilt free." You've earned these calories and from what I learned here, should be eating these calories or your body will go into starvation mode. Soooooo...

    How many calories did you earn for walking and need to make up for?

    Combos are the diet killer! Oh man, I love those little cheesy pretzel tubes of cheddary goodness.

    Who can blame you when you are faced with temptation such as that!?!

    Not me I say. Not me. (shakes head sadly)

    they are just as the sarge described. Tiny delicious pretzel tubes filled with cheese or peanut butter... and they are sinful, and the cheese inside of the reminds me of some of the kinda of cheese the put in crackers, slightly powerdy but with a creamy element. DANG now im craving some combos!

    Yeah combos were my weakness..... don't try them if you haven't before.. because even though they sound gross..they are sooo good! Anyways to answer the previous question.. i burned 400 calories in walking but I think the combos themselves..were like nine hundred calories !!!! ( or sure did taste that way!) ..so yeah..even though I slipped..I do still feel better know I at least didn't throw in the towel for the whole day and not even bother working out..which is something three months ago I would have done.....just called it a day and eat whatever I wanted....and try again the next day..that is one big change I have noticed being here on MFP..even if i slip onces..I get right back up and dust myself off..try and laugh it off and get right back to the diet! Thanks everyone had have a good weekend!
