Which over the following days turned into more chips, then chocolate, pizza, Diet Coke and ice cream. I think there was a cookie or two in there as well.
Which had me feeling lousy for making so many slipups, and also low on energy from not fuelling myself properly.
Being low on energy made it very tempting to skip the gym...but thanks to the Last Queen Standing challenge, I went.
And now that I've been to the gym, I feel much better. More in control. Over the hump.
I've heard a quote from David Kessler to the effect that certain foods prime us for overeating. Clearly chips are the one for me.
So. When will I learn? I'm not entirely sure that I've beaten this one yet.
What do you struggle with?
Here's this week's recap:

What I'm reading this week - Sookie Stackhouse stories by Charlaine Harris
Doesn't look like a bad week to me. Ohhh the Warrior Dash! I'm thinking of doing this with my sons. I'll be curious to hear your take.
ReplyDeleteI've read some of those Sookie Stackhouse books they are pretty good. I'll have to get another one.
