I'm a bit pissed off with myself. Yesterday, a customer gave me a box of Dairy Milk chocolates, as a thank you, for getting a special tyre order for him. Now, I should tell you that Cadbury's are my favourite brand of chocolate, though that's not quite as true as it used to be, since Kraft took over and they no longer use Dairy Milk as their default chocolate. The Creme Eggs have changed because of that. They're no where near as nice. Still, even with that, I find chocolate hard to refuse. Come on, I mean, seriously. Especially free chocolate. I took them home, My genuine intention was to give them to TMM.
I ate my dinner. Lovely healthy baked fish, potatoes, broccoli and cauliflower. Then, with TMM out of the house, my strength of will broke, and I retrieved the sweets, fully intending to scoff them all. (I hadn't given them to TMM at this point, so I wasn't being a bitch and stealing them back) I started with my favourite flavours, strawberry and orange, I ate about ten of them, approximately 100g, at 515 cals. I had about 250 to play with, so I used twice that, and I'm really disappointed in myself. I wouldn't have deliberately gone over my daily allowance like that early in my mfp food tracking. I really don't want to get to the point where that is the norm, and I'm always having to earn back calories that I've over spent.
That is what I did today though. I redeemed myself slightly by eating a low cal dinner and earning three hundred calories on a walk afterwards with TMM. So I'm back in the green for the week. Hopefully, it's early enough in the week that the chocolate won't have had a negative effect on my loss this week.
