Default Who here was a piggie last night?

Merry Christmas!

I most certainly was a piggy last night. Today I took a symbolic shower: I washed off the dirty carbs and am clean to start a LC again.

While I was in the shower, I was thinking about my actions the night before. I was pretty good all through the day but I ate a lot of dessert. I tried a (regular size) piece of each cake (3 of them). I thought of the good sides of what I did as to avoid being stressed:

-- I had the cake pieces within an hour so I shouldn't gain weight (isn't that in one of the books?)
-- It was one meal so it is kinda like CAD (right?)
-- It gave my metabolism a jump start which will help burn future fat ( I don't know about you guys but when I have a carb binge -- once a month -- it seems to jump start my metabolism)
-- It was like a Carb-Up for CKD. I usually do TKD, but hey, a change couldn't hurt.
-- I had no potatoes or peas and went for salad, cheese, and meat.
-- It tasted great and I had a great time with my friends and family!
-- It made me reflect on my actions and this WOE/WOL.

I wrote this because I know how stressful this whole LC deal can get, but maybe we should reflect on the positive aspects. We're humans, we make mistakes, right? But to me, it doesn't look entirely like a mistake. Anybody else?

Well... I hope everyone has a great Christmas day. My morning has been great. SANTA CAME!!! LOL.

Love and Peace,
Alex
