I can totally believe this, I have experienced it, heck, I've even said those words "What the Hell".

Forgiveness is key.

I really think my Move Forward mantra is right for me at this moment. I have to learn to forgive myself for my inevitable slip ups, to move past my mistakes, think about them, understand why I may have slipped up and MOVE FORWARD.

Yesterday was an ok day on plan (I ate well AND I got my steps in), except the chocolate bar I ate in the parking lot of the grocery store... I don't even know why I did it. I can remember feeling like I was starving last night, even immediately after I ate my dinner. I felt a soreness in my stomach. Then later, when I was at the grocery store, I was doing pretty well... then I went down the aisle of candy, I know I should avoid it, and I was done.

I will forgive myself, and try and recognize this feeling again. 

Today will be good, I have the gym tonight.

I am feeling quite a bit of stress right now, at work, at home, because of Christmas, because of schedules, because of deadlines and because of commitments I am avoiding. I guess I should just use the time I have and complete the projects one at a time...

I will take time out today to have a walk at lunch, I think I will need it.
