Diego and chocolate

Those are the 2 words that best decribe my little guy's Christmas this year. The other kids stayed out of the chocolate and candy mostly...they had a little but nothing like the 2 year old! Then there was mama.

I started Christmas morning eating an entire package of Godiva dark chocolate covered almonds. They were soooooo good!!! But probably not the thing to eat at 7:30 in the morning after getting 5 hours of sleep. I ate tons more chocolate throughout the day. And scones. And just random junk. That was after I ate tons of Christmas cookies on Christmas eve while we did our last advent reading.

I FEEL ICKY!!! Today I have tried to jump right back OP. It's hard though when I just want to eat food because it's there. Where is my will power and my "think first" mentality? It's amazing how out of kelter I got by just letting it be a free for all for a day and a half.

UGH!!!

Merry Christmas!

The first thing I did this morning was make my usual breakfast. Nothing extra, just the same breakfast I usually have. That helped me get right back on track and in the right mindset to stay focused the rest of the day.

Glad that Christmas happens only once a year. My 6 yr. old woke up this morning and asked me when it will be Christmas again.

True that! I have been fighting the urge to stuff random foods into my mouth all day long!

I did the same thing Skinny Guy did...I made a normal breakfast at home and then promised myself that I would post everything I ate for the day...knowing I would have to put goof-ups on-line led me back to my fruits and vegetables! One day back to Core feels really good...I feel normal again.

It's amazing how icky eating bad can make us feel?

I ate my face off on xmas eve and xmas day, so don't feel bad. I was right there with ya!

Just get back into your routine, and as Kathy and Skinny Guy said, I made myself my normal breakfast, snacks and lunch yesterday, it's a great way to get back OP now.

I hear ya! I honestly think that half of the junk I ate over the Holidays really wasn't because I wanted it, just because it was the Holidays and it was a "free day" which turned nto a free week! Ugh! Time to get back on track though. We can do this. Get out your tracker and start tracking! I'm keep an eye on you!!
