A Lesson Re-learned.

So last Thursday I started a very strict, very regimented diet and when I say strict I mean ridiculously strict but cold turkey with certain foods is how I have to go or it just doesn't work for me.  I had been doing so good that is until today.
Today I cheated.
Do you know how stinkin hard it is to stay on a ridiculously strict diet and still feed your family all the yummy good things you wish you could be eating?  For me it is hard!  I ended up sticking two vegetable chips (I think they were spinach) and a cookie, in my mouth. Okay, to give myself back some credit I only ate half the cookie, the other half I spit out. Gross!!!  I know but man some times I just need the flavor.

Now I feel like crap.  Not from the guilt, although that isn't helping, but from having the fat and sugar I haven't consumed in a week.

I know, because I have been taught, that there are consequences to our actions. I also know, again because I was taught, that cheating is wrong. So there you go. Do something wrong and you will eventually suffer the consequences. For me that eventually came in about half an hour when my stomach realized what my mouth had done and it wasn't at all happy.

I'm sure when I step on the scales tomorrow morning there will be another consequence that my brain won't be too happy about too.

Lesson taught in my youth, lesson re-learned today.  DON'T CHEAT!
