Oh, boy. It started with a healthy and fun breakfast out. My usual veggie omelet - all good. But then we went to a craft festival and therre it was. Kettle Korn. Damn. So we were going to a party where we needed to bring something and it was my brilliant idea to bring Korn. What was I thinking? I said something like, "Oh, lets get Kettle Korn and we can take it to the party." but inside I was saying, "All for me, all for me, all for me." And I did my best at the party to inhale as much of it as I possibly could. Along with a lot of other stuff that other people brought. Inhalation at warp speed.  And because we bought the super humongous bag, the hostess sent the remainder home with me where I just finished attacking it again. I did manage to wrap the rest of it up and put it out in the trash in the garage. And I now I sit here with great big popcorn (and other stuff) bloat stomach and wonder why in the world I did that to myself. I completely justified the purchase when I knew - I knew! - that I would eat most of it. This is the first time in a long time when I did not listen to my real voice - instead I listened to the whiney little eight year old in me who wanted the popcorn and wanted it now. So how do I handle a slip? Or in this case, a full tilt slide? First of all I admit that I did it instead of pretending that it didn't happen or lying to myself about it. I've already done that here. And second, I forgive myself for screwing up which is harder than it sounds. And third, I get up tomorrow morning, I put my sneakers on and I eat well. That's it. If I fall back into the horrid cycle of regret, remorse, blame, guilt, and self loathing - I'll put back all the weight I've lost in no time at all. Funny how long it takes to get it off and how fast it can all come back. 
Here's to a better tomorrow.
