Unhappy Good news vs. bad news........

Hey guys I am happy to report I am down 9lbs.....Wahoo! The bad news is that I fell to temptation today. I slipped big time! I went out to eat with a friend today. I had a grilled chicken salad and then came time for temptation,......dessert. I decided to eat chocolate mousse. You guys watch, it will throw me off for a week. I feel so stupid

Troubled,
Gaily

Gaily..I've been known to get away with that once in a while...so just wait and see...you may get lucky.

But for next time...check out the LC chocolate mousse recipe, and when you go out to eat, either sneak a piece with you or know you can have it when you get home!

Don't sweat it too much...but, honestly, it really wasn't worth it, was it???

Was the mousse worth it? If so, good for you! If not, you've lived and learned.

I've gotten to the point - WHEN - I fall of the wagon and eat something if it doesn't taste just as good as I thought it would - I throw it out. Lots of stuff I just couldn't wait to have turned out to be a disappointment.

Hope you have a great LC day!

Don't let the guilt ruin your outlook, don't even let it ruin your day. Just let it be the reason you don't cheat the next time. I have had a similar situation, but, there was no going back.... just take today as a new day and go forward..... And, like someone else said, it may not even make a difference

Have a great day!!!!

Wink Thanks

Thanks as always for the support! True, I did feel guilty and I just need to move on and learn from my mistake.
