This week I did something not-so-bright. I entered Tucson's Cake Bake-Off contest on Tuesday. This involved baking 30 tres leches cupcakes on Monday. Tres leches cupcakes involving sweetened condensed milk. I had too many tablespoon tastes.
Then at the event itself, there were CAKES. Cakes to TASTE. I had to taste cakes.
And it's been a quick slip from one or two bad days to,
well I may as well eat everything. The worst part? I didn't even win the contest!
We had pizza the other night, and instead of counting Points on it and limiting myself to two slices, I ate four. And then I had heartburn. I realized, I've been feeling
really good since I've been eating right and exercising -- I've had natural energy and no heartburn or sick stomach. I've been hungry and sleepy, but that's the worst of it. There really is something to this healthy eating thing.
The wagon is rolling down a hill, and I'm trying to catch up with it. What are your tips or suggestions for getting back after a binge?
I've been there. I don't always react in the most healthy way, but lately it's been "OK. Today sucked. What could I have done better? Let's not do that tomorrow."
ReplyDeleteThat doesn't always work, but I've noticed that the more activity I get in, the less I want to over-indulge and not screw up my counts.
