Phew.
I fell off the wagon at lunch. Too many Biscuits and Gravy potato chips (probably the equivalent of a single serving bag) and about 9 peanut M&Ms when making pretzel/Rolo/M&M treats. Then two pretzel treats.
Since I felt the day was already a bust, LOL, I splurged on a margarita wine cooler while getting dinner ready.
Then we made a batch of garlic toast (amazing stuff) and I had the equivalent of two slices of bread over the dinner hour (before, during, and after)…while still eating dinner, of course.
Overall, today was completely unlike 99.9% of my NS days. Too much sugar plus too much food plus alcohol. EEK.
But.
BUT.
It was still light years different from pretty much 90% of my pre-NS days—today’s consumption would have been a light day. I probably would have eaten half a bag of chips with lunch, two handfuls of M&Ms, a handful of finished pretzel treats, had two drinks, at least three pieces or more of bread/toast…plus twice as much dinner as I ate. Plus I wouldn’t have walked a mile during the day.
So I still call today a win. And that’s why NS is the bomb.
Isn’t it amazing! And I think pretty normal to have an “off” day or experience. But to think how it used to be!!! And to know and feel what is right now. I had an “off” evening last night. Couldn’t help it–had a handful of sweet roasted walnuts. For no real good reason. Poop. I’m almost ALWAYS (99.99%) able to resist evening snacks. BUT in olden days it would have been a bowl of chips or buttered popcorn!!!
