Today I went over my calorie allowance, but I'm going to make up for it tomorrow by staying in for dinner and eating a very healthy breakfast and lunch (and dinner, but that's getting ahead of myself). I looked back and found myself making excuses, so today I'm going to identify the factors that led to me overeating.
1. There was beer. And a pitcher of beer rather than keeping to one serving.
2. There was pizza and the only option I should have gone for on the Italian menu was salad, which I justified as not being good to have with beer as it would leave me with an empty stomach. Not a good justification. Note to self: identify a healthy alternative and stick with Diet Coke if you go back. Which I am planning on doing next Tuesday to meet up with friends.
Okay, so I have a plan. It's okay to make mistakes, but I need to catch myself when I overeat and to understand why I'm doing it. It's all about a transformation from where I have been to a healthier future me. No more excuses.
Daily calorie goal: 1400
Actual calorie intake (estimated): 2460
