    We all have bad meals (or days!). They key is not to let it send you into a downward spiral. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and keep on moving forward!
  • I ate Chinese food yesterday and my scale hated me today! So much sodium yesterday it said I gained 6 lbs!!!!!!!!! Obviously water weight. So today, I am drinking LOTS OF WATER, and eating almost no sodium! It happens. No worries

    We all have bad days. The key is to just get back up the next day and not beat yourself up over it. The harder you are on yourself the more likely you are to get to feeling sad/depressed which could lead to more eating.

    They served all that food at the HOSPICE HEALTH FAIR? Sounds like they are fishing for some future customers!

    I had a REALLY........Bad day yesterday. I over ate because I was tired and stressed. I paid for it in the middle of the night. My acid reflux reminded me that was the wrong thing to do!!! I take medicine for it, but if I over eat, it doesn't make a difference. I have only been on the program for 5 days, and it's a struggle for me. Food is very much an addiction for me but I am not giving up! Not yet! :0) I pray not ever again. :0) Get back on the horse girl!!! :0)
