I ate a box of donuts...how was your day?

Options
Well, not exactly a boxful but I did stuff my face with about 3 cream filled delicious donuts and it was worth it.

The past three months or so we've been changing our diets to a more vegetarian lifestyle and also trying to eat non-processed food. It's really really hard and the little cheats that I allow myself to eat do not ever satisfy. But today I really let go and man it felt good. Don't get me wrong, I realize that I consumed 1200 calories and I felt a sugar rush (don't ever remember having one of those) and then that crash and feel that I should not have done it but I needed that and now I can move on.

I just needed to free my guilty conscience with this post. Thank you for listening.

    I consumed a large amount of chocolate almonds. I logged it all - but, dang were they ever good. ;)


    Course, I made sure I waited until AFTER dinner (chicken on the grill and a bowl of salad with lotsa veggies), but I still ate them and had I NOT run out of them... I would have enjoyed more of them!

    Texas Patriot ,

    We are here to listen...any time. I messed up on my diet big time today. I exceeded my proteins, didn't eat nearly enough carbs or fat. Oh well. I wish I could find a place where I can ask for the site to show me all the high cars and fat with no protein foods. :-)

    I've noticed that I tend to binge on stuff I lack during the week. Especially fats. You might need to add more fat to your diet?

    Cheat days are good for you.....just as long as they aren't very often......gives your metabolism a scare and for me I will actually lose weight! But just don't do it very often!

    As I read your post I'm staring at a cupcake advertisement on the right-hand side of my screen. Man! Does it look yummy! But honestly, we all have those days. Just get back on track tomorrow and you'll be fine. :wink:

    Oh well! Some days are like that! You do have to live! Once you have indulged, you log it, and reflect and move on....glad you enjoyed it!

    I ate 2 mini bags of m&m's AND a can of sprite! I have not had a can of pop in close to a year....we were at a football game and I just decided I wanted a can of pop...I logged it, and I will live through it. It is the larger change in lifestyle that matters. I have learned that I can and should eat something not so great every once in a while, everything in moderation.

    Don't worry, be happy!:bigsmile: :wink:

    I gave in and had a skinny pumpkin spice latte and a salted caramel cupcake. :) We all need our treats every now and then. You'll get back on track tomorrow. :)

    I just got home from an out-of-town family reunion. They had boxes of donuts, deep fried chicken and other stuff. It didn't even occur to me to try the unhealthy stuff. It just didn't tempt me away from wanting to be healthy. Instead I ate lots of fresh grapes, strawberries, veggies and salsa. Afterward, we stopped off at Whole Foods Market for some healthy shopping and an early dinner.

    I feel satisfied, proud of myself and I avoided the physical discomfort of eating junk food. I am glad you enjoyed yourself as well. I don't think I could ever go back to eating like that again. I love feeling great.

    And seeing all my fat unhappy relatives complaining about their aches, pains and prescriptions made me feel all that much better.
