Crash and Burn!

You've been there...well, if you have ever tried to lose weight, you probably have. Its the day when things go wrong. Before you are out of bed, you have one child screaming they are hungry, the second child waking the third child up and you are running in circles wondering who to tend to first. Its that type of day that makes you say "just one chocolate", "its only one cookie", "a donut is my friend".

Usually when days start like that for me its hard to shake. I take that back, rarely do I shake that feeling of being on edge and needing something sweet to make life better. Something or somethings to make me feel better...and then by lunch my diet has been ruined, so I eat as I wish, skip the workout and plan to head back to the program tomorrow.

Today was that day. In fact, that first paragraph was my morning. I had to hold my breath so I wouldn't start the day yelling.

By 10 a.m. not only had I been thorugh a trying morning, I also had a parent probably want to kill me as my 2 year old knocked her one year old off a chair at the dance studio...and the emotions didn't stop there....

Tonight however, I don't need to have regret. I don't need to question my actions...because I steered clear of all sweets and sugars. Of course, I turned to Heidi, and my friend Colleen as well...and I even got my work out in today too.

So today, I planned to post about crashing and burning, failing at the diet, and shoving the exercise to the wayside, but I didn't do it.....

Instead of crashing and burning, I rose and overcame! To a better tomorrow!!!!!!
