It happened. I fell off the wagon. But 'm not extremely disappointed in myself, which is surprising. Usually, I feel like a failure, but I've come to realize that it's okay to stray off the path a little every once in a while. I don't have to be perfect all the time. I know what I have to do in order to get back on track, and because I haven't set unrealistic goals for myself, it doesn't seem that hard (unlike before and how I used to dread getting back into a 'diet').

This past weekend was hectic, and I knew that things would get rough. My boyfriend and I have been pretty rocky these past few weeks, school has gotten crazy, my apartment lease is ending soon, and I just gave into the emotional eater inside me. I didn't binge like crazy, but I let myself have a slice of pizza, some chocolate and some rice krispies. I didn't gorge on them and spread them out. I know I shouldn't have had them at all, but I think it was slightly justified in this time of crisis haha. I probably should have worked out instead of eating to feel better, but it was just one of those days. I won't let it get me down, because I know that that's the worst way I could possibly deal with it. I have to just accept it and move on.

On the bright side, I've been bike shopping because I want to get into cycling. I've always liked the feeling of biking and I think it would be a nice way to get some fun exercise. I just have to find the perfect bike, so I've been bike shop hopping. I can't wait to start getting on the road and getting a bit more fit!

Today I had dinner with my boyfriend. This is actually a really big deal for me because I tend to overeat a lot whenever I'm with him. That's why I decided to save up my calories during the daytime for dinner and snacks, which i knew I would end up eating if I was with him. I can never resist when I'm with him for some reason! It frustrates me. This usually happens to me whenever I'm in a relationship. I can resist temptations just fine by myself, but the moment my significant other comes into the picture, I lose all self-control. Maybe it's because I'm afraid that he'll judge me for eating healthy? Or I don't want him to think I'm starving myself, even though I'm not? Or I just want to feel at ease with him? I don't know.

We haven't seen each other in a while, and we ended up making dinner together. It was super delicious and I tried to eat as slowly as possible so that I wouldn't pig out on everything. I have to say, I think I did a good job! Now comes the hard part--avoiding snacking! I've already gone ahead and eaten fruit snacks, rice krispies and all kinds of junk. I'm somehow still under my calorie limit for the day, but barely! I'm eyeing this second bar of rice krisipies and it's so tempting but I need to stay strong! I hope I don't give in to temptation!

Day two, and I'm still going strong! I'm surprised at myself because normally I wouldn't even last this long. It's pathetic, but even 1 day was hard for me before. I could never get over the first few days, which is why it was so hard for me to keep a diet going. I guess I'm doing something right by upping my daily calorie allowance to 1500 instead of 1000 or 1200! It's so much easier to be able to eat a relatively satisfying meal without constantly worrying about going over my daily limit!

I actually went to a Thai restaurant today and was able to order something healthy off the menu! I ate until I was satisfied, and then actually told myself to stop. In the past, I was very against wasting food and not finishing everything on my plate, but I've realized that I'm not doing myself any favors by keeping that mindset. I know now that it's okay for me to only finish half and take home the rest. If anything, I can save some money too by portioning meals for later.

Overall, I am very satisfied with myself during these past two days. I hope I can keep this momentum going!
