Lost a shopping battle
Yeah, had a little slip up at the grocery store tonight. Two goofs in fact.
One... I bought a few Power Bar protein bars just in case I got hungry on the drive tomorrow or hubby got low blood sugar and truly, as it is only about an hour and a half or so, that was just BOGUS! Better planning would've gotten me to bed earlier and up in time to fix a healthy breakfast. Instead, I'm prevailing on hubby to bring me something from Subway when he gets off his mid shift.
Two... I got to the register and right there, smack in front of me, was a big pile of Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs. I tried to resist, but it was getting on towards a meal time and I caved. I stuck to just buying one and I have to admit, I really enjoyed eating it. At least that's the only Easter candy that has ever really appealed to me. The rest I can easily ignore.
The bad part is that I also ate three of the Power Bars when I got home, because my feet hurt and I didn't feel like fixing a meal. I went over calorie budget by a couple hundred tonight. I did stop before polishing them all off.
Tomorrow morning, we are off to eat Thai food. I just plan to enjoy and be moderate. A break might even do me good. You know, I am seeing progress... it's just been such a roller coaster that it isn't always obvious.
But the scale did hit a new low of 225.0 this morning.
