Well, yesterday was a total blowout. I have a large, important project with a looming deadline. I resorted to my "rocket fuel " office booster of Diet Coke and excess chocolate. Then I asked my husband to make pizza for dinner, with cheese and with the last of the grass fed beef we're clearing out of the house. Not quite my usual fare of late, and well over my calorie target. It's OK. This is not a derailment, just one day. I've said from day one heading down the plant based road that it would be mostly, not 100%. This morning, it's back to oatmeal, flax, chia, pumpkin seeds and dates. I'll pack leftover bean soup or a black bean burrito for lunch. I feel to good on what I've been eating to say well, I fell off the diet, so I might as well eat whatever now. Yesterday was a choice, and today can be a different one. ONWARD! 😁
