Dangerous siren call of my old eating habits

So I decided I would eat what I want for Christmas and just try to keep my portion sizes down. The problem was I had a lot of little portions. When I got back home I found it hard to not eat constantly and count everything again. I guess actually It was more that I found it easy to eat out of boredom/emotion and not count everything. But I'm back on track.

How about you all? Did you find it hard to get back on track?

    Everything was fine until I realized my sister hadn't taken the carrot cake with her. The 820 calories a slice carrot cake. I love carrot cake. So I ate the 2 slices of carrot cake which was all my alloted calories for the day. So I did taebo, watp, weights for 35 minutes and kathy smith for 20 minutes all because of 2 slices of carrot cake. Yes I am a crazy carrot cake addict.

    A nasty stomach bug came to visit. Put a stop to any eating I wanted to do. Feeling better now and tomorrow will gladly resume my healthy eating. I kind of think it wasn't so much a bug as my body revolting over what I fed it!

    I'm sorry to hear about the stomach flu... and during the holidays! I'm sorry.

    Back on Thanksgiving, my hubby wieghed himself in the morning and later that evening as well. He gained four pounds that day. Yeah, I understand the boredom thing. It's also the munching m&m's at the desk at work thats hard to break. :explode:
