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

    Get back on it the very next meal. Hardees did not defeat you.....it just tripped you up a bit. :happy:

    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:
