Day 7

I feel like day 7 was a failure.

I did great during the day, but in the evening I went over my calories by 300 calories and even had a glass of wine.

My husband and I went shopping for most of the day and decided to cuddle over a TV show in the evening. When the time came (around 10pm) I found I was very hungry. I really wanted to just go to bed, but I had promised to spend time with him.

So I broke down and ate a snack (14 baked lentil chips & 5 tbsp guacamole), and even had a glass of wine (it was large, so it was more like 2 in my oppinion).

I feel so incredibly guilty right now.

So I try to stay under 1000 calories a day and ended up having 1300. I know that doesn't sound like much to some people, but I've been really deligent and I just feel incredibly disappointed in myself.

I'll most likely cut back to 700 calories today to make up for it, and definitely NO WINE tonight. My husband will be out for the night, so at least I won't feel any obligation to stay up with him and I can just go to bed when I start getting really hungry.

OK, so I'm going to list good things that happened yesterday in an effort to feel a bit better about my fuck-up:

• I didn't have the snack a really wanted (and almost had) which would have been double the calories; smoked muscles with baked bean chips.
• I stopped at one glass of wine. Instead, I laid down on my husband's lap and cuddled.
• The rest of my day was full of healthy food: fruits, oats, yogurt, tons of veggies, and a lean meat. I even remembered to take my calcium pill.
