    Well we all fall off the wagon from time to time. You just have to make sure you get back the next day!!

    It is ok to splurge as long as you don't make it a habit. Just get back on track tomorrow

    I hate it when you splurge and it doesn't taste as good as you remember . . .

    Then again, maybe that's the reason I am now able to drive by McDonald's and not want to stop EVERY time!

    Remember what it tasted like today -- this will help you resist in the future!

    Good luck!

    I have made it a point to 'research" restaurants online and look for the best options they may have on their menu. That way, if you find yourself in a situation where you have to 'run through a drive thru' - you are already armed with the knowledge of what will be the least detrimental items on the menu. WE ALL have moments - the key is to just acknowledge it and move on. One meal doesn't change anything. Just eat the rest of them healthy. It's about finding a happy medium and enjoying A LITTLE bit of everything in life..!

    I think it's important to let yourself go every once in a while so that you won't have days where you want to eat everything bad for you insight! No worries about today! Make tomorrow better!! =D

    I think it was a good thing, not being as good as you remembered will make you crave it less in the future. Since I started dieting I have done a few road trips and unfortunantly Im a Wendys addict but one bad batch of spicy asian boneless wings and I dont crave them weekly anymore

    I had pizza from Little Caesars last night! 2 slices of pizza, soda, and several bread sticks and I ended up doubling my alloted calories! It was an emotional day, and I needed my "comfort food". Today was much better but not perfect... oh well. :ohwell:
