Ice cream eaten today: ONE
I wish I didn't have to be honest. But I do. I did it. I impulsively ate ice cream today. Yep, I went back to Cold Stone today. They still didn't have yogurt. I wasn't looking for yogurt though. I wanted the good stuff. Ice cream. How do I feel about it? I actually feel fine. I ordered a kid sized butter pecan (I need therapy for butter pecan) and yes I got the little cone this time. Oh well, I'm not going to completely break my phone like my CC told me. I had a moment of weakness but I'm not going to let it get to me. I ran 2 miles today and for the rest of the day I did very well with my impulse eating. I guess I'm just scared that it will become a pattern. First its a cone then its a half gallon then a gallon. Then who knows from there. Ok, I'm taking this too far.
I actually feel ok about the fact that I had a kid-sized ice cream cone today. Normally I would feel guilty but not this time. Although it was out of impulse, at least I didn't get the waffle cone with triple scoops. I can't keep going back to "at least I didn't do this". That is just an excuse to let myself slowly get back in to overeating. Ok, so I guess I don't feel ok about it. I feel like I lost a battle.
It is really hard. Food is everywhere. And for some reason it calls my name. Eat me. Eat me. Eat more of me. This stinks.
It's ok ginnie! You are aware of your weakness and yes, sometimes, it will get the better of you. You can treat yourself sometimes, just have a lighter lunch or supper if that will make you feel better about it. Get up and start over tomorrow!! Love u...
ReplyDeleteGinnie, it was a kid sized cone!
ReplyDeleteYou deserve to have things you enjoy... in moderation! Just don't overdo it. Enjoy every bite and be happy that you control when you stop! Baby steps :)
It's OK to enjoy some now and then! I have never had success by completely cutting myself off. It just makes you want it more. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! I know it was just a small cone but I think I was more upset that it was an impulse eat. I'm over it now though, I am thinking of the positive, at least I got a kids size. Thank you for the support!
