SELF-CONTROL?!?!

What the hell is that? Now I have 40 calories left because I just had to go to the candy machine and eat candy from it. Grrr... I do have a hard-core work-out and lean dinner already planned... but still. This is one of those days I could just eat and eat and eat. True story.

    Been dealing with self-control this week myself. Margaritas and queso dip on Sunday and now today, a big lunch for really no reason other than the place was convenient & close.

    Looks like I'm adding an extra workout tonight when I get home! Serves me right, I feel like I was dogging it in this morning's workout. . .

    Its ok its only one day.I do it to and i want to beat myself up but i just get back on track and go from there.Don't let it blow all your work out the window.If you never give up you can't fail. Thats what i live by.

    I am usually very good about self control. except for this past weekend where I ate a crap ton of fresh made oatmeal cookies...

    so bad, but so worth it.

    what's life if you don't indulge every now and again?

    ONE 'off day' probably won't affect you.
    It may even give your metabolism a boost!

    I didn't help my cause by putting the pork in the crock pot last night, waking up and pulling it before work, waiting all day for my delicious lean pork carnitas.

    So.. it's been an extra hungry day for me.

    Did you eat breakfast? If not, maybe your body was telling you it wanted breakfast.

    Never eat breakfast.

    I completely lost self-control if I start eating early.

    I eat lunch & dinner.

    Self-control also means being able to stop after one or two or three.

    Stillll hungry. It won't end today.

    Now that we got chocolate out of the way it's red meat time.

    What do you expect from an animal that bleeds for a week and doesn't die?

    I'm feeling weak today also. I ate my dinner already and it's 4:00 PM!!

    BUT I'm going to yoga so I can't eat after 5:30 PM. Yoga is over at 8 PM. So most I will have is a yogurt.

    I can do it. I can stay within my calorie limit.

    Lets do it. Lets stay on track.

    I always have candy on hand to give to kids, but I usually end up eating it myself. I had about seven Starbursts today. I get so mad at myself!
