I refuse to beat myself up. I'm not feeling well right now. I am trying to fight something off and my throat is hurting, my ears are hurting and I'm extremely tired. I ate a bagel with cream cheese and half of an OJ. I am now fighting the urge to berate myself for doing it. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my having a comfort bagel when I'm sick. I truly enjoy the flavor. I will fight the urge to be perfect all the time. And more importantly, to beat myself up if I am less than perfect. I wrote down my bagel, cc, and oj. I can still lose 0.5 pounds a week with an occasional bagel and oj. I will probably have soup for lunch instead of the lunch I packed. I will write that down. When I'm sick the things I'm used to eating just don't taste good to me.
I truly believe that its the "i hate myself for screwing up" mentallity that hurts so many of us and causes that 'give-up, throw in the towel' attitude. I do not hate myself. I enjoyed my bagel. I am enjoying my oj. I will enjoy my soup. And I will write down everything that crosses my lips.
EVENING UPDATE: I DID IT!!! Woo-Hoo! I still stuck within my range of 2500 today. I am so freaking proud of myself for not letting the bagel turn into a spiral! :) :) :)
