when you fall

i think i have found that one of the hardest things about dieting is the personal guilt and defeat you feel when you fall down. you know what you are supposed to be doing and how you are supposed to be eating, but when you give in to the temptation to eat or drink something you aren't supposed to you feel guilty. the hardest part is picking yourself back-up. there is a song called "accidents happen" by sixx:am, now the song itself is taking about someone who is fighting a drug addiction and falling off the wagon, but food is an addiction as well and it works. the lyrics say "it's okay, we all fall off the wagon sometimes. it's not your whole life! it's only one day, you haven't thrown everything away."

coming out of the nye and christmas week i didn't lose but i didn't gain because i gave in to the temptation. the nice thing is that i know that i am ok because i can get back up and start fighting again. i guess what i am trying to say is, if you fall remember how far you have come and realize that you haven't thrown it all away. just get back on plan and keep truckin. you can do it!!!
