Hi everyone,
Went to a baseball game last night. Thought I was doing a good job preparing by checking out what food they had before I went. There was a deli at the ballpark that had chicken caesar salads.

Too bad the place was incompetent - the line wasn't moving and I had no hope it ever would. So I opted for a hotdog with no bun. It just didn't cut it so I got peanuts. Those didn't cut it.

I got home and ate 2 bowls of raisin bran. And then the crumbs out of a bag of chips.

That, my friends, is how a binge transpires.

And what did it all start with?? LACK OF PREPARATION.

I needed to bring my dinner with me. I needed to eat before I went to the game. I needed to have some almonds or some "legal" snack with me and water.

I have been doing this long enough that you would think that I would know better by now. I would know what it takes to be successful.

It is like being in a boxing match. I watched an MMA match the other day and the guy put his hands down for 2 seconds and he got punched in the face and knocked out. YOU MUST BE EVER VIGILANT. You think you are prepared - but then you get punched in the face and you are eating crumbs out of a bag.

I have been doing this long enough to also know that this is a journey and I can either get fed up and give up or just learn and move on. Today is a fasting day so I will be drinking my water and thinking happy thoughts of being on track again!

KEEP CALM AND CONTINUE ON!
Have a great day gang!
