I went so far off the diet reservation today! Lately I've been a portion controlled brown rice vegetables and steamed fish girl. Today I pigged out. I ate macaroni salad and ham and coffee cake and oh the candy oh the chocolate. I also drank coffee for the first time in a long time. Its effect was tremendous. When I got home, I rearranged and cleaned the kitchen.

I didn't even really enjoy it either. Sure it was greasy and heavy and delicious, but I knew it was wrong. I feel so gross! I forgot what it feels like to be this full, it's super uncomfortable. I suppose it's a blessing that I'm regretful and sick. I have to remember this feeling so don't do it again.

I'm glad I'm not alone in this! ;)

Happy Easter.
