The Saga Continues

OK...so....I totally fell off the wagon today.  It was my first day working in the office in almost 2 yrs.  I have been blessed with a job that allows me to work from home.  UNTIL NOW.  My computer fried and so I am in the office for about 3 wks while I wait for a computer to be brought to me to replace the one that is fried.  Did I mention the computer is already at the office and I still have to wait that long?  Yeah.....not cool.  Anyhoooo....I had intended on stopping this morning on the way to work for a cup of coffee but since my entire work world has been turned upside down, I forgot.  Instead, I stopped at the local gas station and got a bottle of diet iced tea (good choice) and a bottle of water (even better choice).  Then, it happened.  The bad choice....did you know bad choices come in the form of pepperoni and cheese stuffed inside of a huge roll?  Yeah....a pepperoni roll.  I made my purchase and went on my unmerry way to work.  I got to work, found out where I would be sitting for the next eternity, and began a day that will go down in history as "OMG why did I do that" day.  It started easily enough.  I drank my tea.  Then my stomach started growling around 9am or so.  AH....the vending maching was calling my name.  A hershey bar with almonds was the choice I made.  Hey, at least it had almonds right?  So I ate my candy bar and started on my bottle of water.  As lunch time loomed so close yet so far away, I sat at my desk wishing the building would crumble to the ground.  No such luck.  Oh well, it's noon.  I warmed up the pepperoni roll and TRIED to eat it but it was less than tasty.  That could be a good thing, if I wasn't starving.  Yes, it wasn't that great and I ate it anyway :-(  After lunch I continued to do my best to not slip into a coma from the boredom and having to sit at a desk and listen to loud people around me.  The it hit me...the dreaded sweet tooth.  Back to the vending machine for chocolate covered donuts....oh how I love thee.  I devoured the donuts and finished off the water.  FINALLY 5PM rolled around and I headed home only to find that my dear sweet boyfriend made hot dogs for dinner.  No big deal, I was gonna make hot dogs anyway...he just beat me to it YAY....so I ate a hot dog and some potato chips and french onion dip for dinner.  

To say I fell off the wagon would be the understatement of the year.  But ya know what?  Tomorrow is a new day and I will do better.  Do I feel guilty for the way I ate today?  Yes...yes I do, but everyone has a bad day.  Do I feel bad?  Yes....yes I do....but bad as in my stomach hates me for eating the junk I did today.  I shall love my stomach and feed it better tomorrow.
