I started (this time) about two months ago, and am down 13 pounds. Doing well.

This morning, as I was crossing the street to mail a letter (in a crosswalk), a car came around the corner and hit me.

I’m okay, just banged up. Though I presume I’ll feel worse tomorrow.

But congratulate me because I didn’t let this kick me into mindless eating! Between the adrenaline rush and the pain, my first thought was cake-chocolate-ice-cream-sugary cereal. But I went to sleep instead.

I stayed on track and can “afford” a chocolate cupcake tonight.

    Whoa what?!? You got hit by a car!? Did you go to the hospital? That could have been horrific. I’m glad you’re ok! If I were you I’d be eating a whole sheet cake and celebrating being alive! Congrats on your weight loss and cheers to your discipline, even on a rough day!

    I’m stiff and sore, but otherwise okay.

    I was just so pleased that I didn’t use it as an excuse, considering that I tend to use *anything* as an excuse to eat.
