Today was a banner day on how my two goals don’t always jive together.
I started off my day with great intentions. I packed oatmeal with cinnamon and raisins for breakfast. For lunch I packed leftover chicken breast with wild rice along with a banana. Starting off the week being good on my diet is essential.
However…
I walked into the break-room to make my oatmeal. Walked out with a donut. I have such a hard time saying NO to free food. There wasn’t even an email to announce the evil treats were there. Maybe if I would have been warned I could have talked myself out of them.
Then later this morning a co-worker came to my desk to chat. She said she brought in 3 pieces of pizza in for lunch – she would only eat two and probably throw out the extra if I didn’t want it. Throw out food? I could never be responsible for throwing out food – there are starving children out there! Again – healthy planned meal was pushed aside for free food. I ate the banana – is that worth anything?
The good news is that I don’t have to pack lunch for tomorrow – it is all here waiting for me.
