WEEK 5 -- DAY 29 -- THE DAY AFTER

It never fails.  The day or two after a not so great weight loss is always downhill for me.  It didn't start off so much that way but it ended on a downward spiral.

I was running late in the morning (still in AC) and my usual breakfast place (Roma) was closed.  I then headed over to Starbucks and the line was out the door.  I then ended up at The Metropolitan and all I could get was an apple turnover.  I only ate half of it.  I know....not great but I was desperate.

During the day I had a Starbucks 190 calorie snack which consisted of nuts and cranberries.  I was leaving there right about dinner time and was at a loss as to what to eat.  I stopped at Starbucks on my way out of the hotel thinking I could pick up a sandwich.  No such luck.  I ended up with a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese.  All in all, not such a bad day until 11 o'clock at night when I was starving and couldn't keep myself from going downstairs and getting two small bags of Lays potato chips.  Why do I do this?

And then once I do this, it almost assures me that I'll be bad the next day as well.  Thank goodness I'm not weighing myself until Tuesday....I probably gained weight.
