Struggling

These last couple days have been tough. I've just been feeling the pull to eat badly...and that's how it's best described, as if something is pulling me off track. Tonight I caved. Ate fast food. Inhaled it. Total emotional eating 'cause I wasn't even hungry. Don't even know what I'm emotional about, although a little stressed lately. But still...today otherwise was a good day. So I don't know why I fell off the wagon tonight.

But I do know it's going to happen from time to time. And I have to expect it, accept it and move on. The problem I had before was that I would continue to eat badly and emotionally eat for days, weeks, etc. But one downfall is not the end of this journey. Just a speed bump.

And once my lovely talkative daughter goes to sleep (she's now in her crib just talking to her stuffed animals), I will go to bed myself, get a good night's sleep and start again in the morning.

There will be days like this. But they won't get me down, damn it.
