So, it turns out... I gave into temptation tonight while at work. The good news is it wasn't bread (YAY!!) The bad news is...... it was a slice of peach pie from Marie Callendar's. I LOVE peaches, and when my manager's brought it out... I should have walked away... But I just couldn't help myself!!!!!!!!! Once I gave in I kinda went nuts. I had a few bites of a Tomato Basil Pasta, and a few bites from our brand new Hershey's Chocolate Bar Cheesecake. I am not going to add these items into my log because it will just upset me, I will just have to know that I went over my calories yet again (seems to be an ongoing trend the past few days).The good news about today is that I worked out twice! I did a 30 min. Jullian Michaels DVD that kicked my ass, and I also went to swim practice. I probably burned off close to the amount of calories I consumed today in my workouts... but it still doesn't make up for giving into the temptation. I think once I start working behind the bar it might be easier for me to not eat while at work, since I will be stuck behind the bar and there won't be an unlimited food supply at my disposal. My calorie counter app does not incorporate my calories burned into my daily caloric intake. I can input the calories I have burned throughout the day, but it will not add those calories back into what I am allowed to eat... should it? I am thinking being able to consume the calories that I have burned would kind of defeat the purpose of burning them... I think I am okay with sticking to 1500 calories a day, and also trying to burn at least 1000 calories a day. I will keep these two things separate. But, I will keep telling myself that going over today was kinda sorta alright since I did workout so much :)
You've been working out a lot and you're looking REALLY good. I know you will be ok. Sometimes we slip up and that just happens. The most important thing is not to say "I slipped up, might as well eat whatever I want now". If you just get right back to it you'll be fine.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA that's hard for me :) I feel like once I start I can't stop... I can't just tease myself with the food, I have to like eat it all! Even when I am not hungry... that is the sad part! I think from now on, when I go out to eat (which isn't very often thank god) I will box up half my meal before I start eating it... cuz if it's in front of me I will eat it...
