the first stumble....
Well- I finally did it.
I succumbed to bad choices last night!
I overate on a chicken stirfry with noodles (i didn't even need the noodles...!), that was consumed far too late in the evening, had a milky way chocolate, a whole heap of almonds and some macadamias... AND.... *draws breath* a third/half tub of ice cream?
Oh boy!
Only one thing left to do... With grace I have woken up this morning, discarded any guilt, and am just about to head to the gym. I'm not going to let one bad day out of so many brilliant ones change my attitude. I will stick to working out hard like I have been lately, and stick to eating well like I have been also. In the long run, this is just a learning experience/minor setback.

Update:
Went to gym, had a tough 1 hour session... and am making good food choices. Feeling very positive- I will not get trapped by short-term thinking.. :) I am in this for the long haul! And I know it's how I approach these stumbles that is so much more important than celebrating losing the weight..
ALL ICE-CREAM SHALL BE REMOVED FROM THE HOUSE... and at next craving, will allow a small low fat tub :) No more spoon in the 4-litre tub for me, oh no!
I think I will just keep up the exercise, and incorporate a variety of soups into my diet for dinner over the next week. Inexpensive, low-cal and YUMMY...
Anyway- back to school work...

Good on you for going to the gym. Its also important for us to recognise our danger foods and remove them or have them in small tubs until we can control them. Your doing well. Keep it up and try not to beat yourself up over one bad night.
thanks carlton :) I know I'm not going to be perfect all the time and there will be many slip ups on the journey.. it's part of the growing experience. Truly, having this blog and all the support on the forum do wonders for motivation. Thanks for your support :)
