    that's ok. it takes time to change behavior...and plus you were probably thinking about food/eating well/ and all that and it is overwhelming. Just make a few smart decisions for the rest of today to make up for it.
  • Don't let one bad decision ruin your whole day! Just hop back on track for the rest of the day :)
  • you have to fight more then one battle to win the war :D
    don't give up, keep your goal in mind
  • Why is having an ice cream bad? I have a lot of weight to lose and for a large number of years I have done all the fad diets and have lost huge amounts quickly only to put it all back on and more. I now belong to a supportive group who are all working on being normal. Every time I eat something I think I shouldn't I ask myself "would a normal person eat this?" If I can say yes it's ok and if it puts me over my calories I just do something physical. I am doing ok. Slow and steady.

    As long as it's one ice cream and not the tub I really don't see it as being bad, it's normal.
