you know how most job sites have those "accident free since ..." signs? well, this site needs one, too.
"binge-free since april 2nd."
i was doing so well with everything ... until yesterday.
first of all, i didn't make it to the gym (my mouth was in serious pain, and i just couldn't make it. totally understandable, but personally disappointing)
secondly, my mom had made alex and i some DELICIOUS little muffins to bring home last week. in my favorite flavor: cranberry.
throughout the day, i had seven. SEVEN!
oh, emotional eating, you got me again!
*NOTE: i only ate two fat-free yogurts, a small salad and a fresco burrito, but that doesn't matter. it was the act of eating without knowing or recognizing my limits.*
why?!
i miss my dog. i'm tired. i'm overwhelmed by our messy apartment. i had to go to the dentist. i was in pain.

i'm not excusing my behavior, but recognizing it so i can move on. i had a fabulously delicious cheat, and despite how mad i am at myself, i just need to move on.
i can fail. i can succeed. the choice is my own.
today, i continue to choose success, even in the midst of my stumbles.
i can't let this get me down!

Cheating every once in a while is ok. Start letting yourself have small cheats every now and again, so you won't be tempted to cheat as big next time. love you. At least it wasn't like chocolate cake or something worse than muffins.-Sara
