Back in the right direction

Honestly after the past few days I've had and the way I've handled it (the way I've eaten and been pretty lazy) would have left me going screw it. Especially because today was tomato basil soup day at work...and of course they have stacks of grilled cheese to go with it. Especially because a patient's family member keeps bringing in cookies. Where is it written that the fastest way to a nurses heart is through candy, cakes and sugar? Because it is totally true. Five of us can demolish a box of See's candy in 2 minutes flat.

You catch my drift though, I had ample opportunity to go overboard. I didn't though and that makes me feel pretty good. It's not that one grilled cheese is going to be the end of me. On a good week I could splurge and probably still loose weight. I think there is room in my diet for a cookie once a week, heck once a day if I wanted. But I don't. I would rather spend my calories on other things. Plus this has been a bad week and I really need to buckle down.

Yesterday was busy. I did not have a good group of people to work and it went by super slow even though I was running around crazy. That seems to defy logic, alas it was my reality. I didn't want to get super hungry so I made myself eat my snacks and take a lunch (15 minutes but still). You'd think this would help with snacking but it was almost harder because everyone was shoving cookies at me. Anyways I made it and had a deficit and for that I am thankful.

Deficit of 1426

Barely met my burn goal at 2801
