I was doing so well eating a healthier choice...and then had a really bad day

You must be very determined to stay in healthy eating style! Thumb up for you. I heard many parents try to keep their kids away from E things in their diet, as the result, when kids have some sweets they turn funny. I bet you must have done really well so far to be able to feel the difference. I also try to eat as healthily as I can, and use organic ingredients whenever I can get hold of them. However, there deems to be one or two awful days in a month that I am unable to keep up with my plan. I used to feel very annoyed and frustrated but now I have to accept the fact that it is difficult to follow it everyday if you want to involve in some social activities. I am more relaxed about it now since I know healthy diet is part of my life and nothing can make me live in a way I don't want to be. Good luck for you!

i have been doing the same as you have and have been doing so since last january and to that end, i have gone down one dress size! don't beat yourself up over one day though, its not worth it. everyone has bad days where they dont live up to their own expectations. good luck!

Yes, I've done this plenty of times and felt bad about it later. I try to watch what I eat most of the time. The only time I don't worry about is on holidays and when we have potluck at church. I also like to eat out about once or twice a month and I get what I want then. I get tired of staying on a diet so much. Kathy.
