**Day 114**

Why do I always use a holiday as an excuse to eat like crap?  I've always done it, and today was no different.  I am so full, and I feel sick.  I didn't start the day with any kind of  plan, and that always leads to trouble for me.  I don't know why I keep making the same mistake over and over again - eating crappy foods, and not stopping after a few bites like I should when I do choose to eat crappy foods.  I feel like I've been there too many times this month!  I wouldn't be so upset with myself if I didn't overdue it.  Like this morning, we went to my sister's house for breakfast, and my mom ended up bringing fruit WITH fruit dip - you know, the, completely, yummy, but not good for you, cream cheese and marshmallow fluff fruit dip?!!  OMG - I love that stuff!!  Seriously, give me a spoon, and a corner to hide in, and I could eat a whole big bowl of it - without the fruit!!  Anyway, I started out with about a tablespoon of it with some grapes and strawberries, and I didn't need anymore than that, but, oh, I WANTED more, and I couldn't stay away from it!  It was calling my name - Here I am, Shannon.  I'm soooooo good.  Come have some more!!  And I listened, I went back two more times!  The whole day went this way - too much ham with pecan glaze, one too many buns, too much butter on my potato, etc.  So, it's all about poor planning, and poor choices for me.  I overdue it!  I need to remember - portion control!!

Once my stomach stops hurting, I'm going to walk, at least, 2 miles on my treadmill - maybe I can work off, at least, one of those buns that I ate! :)

I hope you all made better food choices than me today!
