Well...yesterday wasn't a very good day for me diet/exercise-wise. I cooked a couple of small pancakes and turkey bacon for breakfast. The pancakes were more calories than I would have liked but if you're going to eat a heavy meal it's best to do it at the beginning of the day than the end. So, if I had of eaten small meals from that point on, today wouldn't have been so bad. Of course I didn't do that. For lunch I ate a salad with a....wait for it....fried piece of catfish. Then for dinner I just completely threw my diet out of the window and ate a double cheese burger from burger king and washed that down with a tall cup of ice cold cranapple juice. Yes, it was delicious but it was not at all worth the guilt I'm feeling now. I just feel like no matter how determined I am to stay strong and lose weight, in moments of weakness I just can't make the right choices. It's really hard for me to stick to a diet unless I plan out what I'm going to eat before the day even starts. That way when I get hungry, I don't have to wrestle with tough decisions. Needless to say, yesterday I did not plan at all. After running around all day with the baby, a sudden hunger attack crept up on me out of nowhere and at that point I just couldn't wait to eat long enough to figure out what to eat, gather ingredients, cook, wash dishes, etc., etc. It was just easier to grab a burger from a fast food place and fill my stomach sooner rather than later.
*SSSIIGGGHHH!* I have got to break this cycle!
On a more positive note - that day is behind me and today I can start fresh. Today I WILL do better....I hope. :)

You can do it! Just do what you said, plan everything out before you do it. Just once you get a little free time, sit down and jot some ideas down. It's better than nothing, and especially if you know it'll keep you on track!
