Re: Overdid and not sorry :-)

[Guest guest]

Well... I overdid it today, and sort of wish I hadn't, but I'm not obsessing

about it or anything. It was the last day of finals and I went out to lunch

with my colleagues and then ate a bunch of chocolate afterwards, and felt too

full. But I didn't feel like eating again the rest of the day. It's almost 10

pm now, and I'm finally a little hungry, but not hungry enough to get up out of

bed and get anything.

Happy birthday, Ellie!

good cake.

Congrats on your decade milestone Ellie - I'm just a year ahead of you ;-) And

also congrats on ENJOYING your celebration without guilt or remorse. I think

that's the best b-day gift one can give to themselves - to be PRESENT in their

eating and happily on the IE journey. Especially after so long in the diet

dumps. What flavor was the really good cake?!? Or did it have a fabulous

filling/icing? Yum all the way :-) :-)

Yes, happy birthday Ellie. Sounds like you did great, especially with all of

the diet police, diet rebel triggers around birthday cakes. To eat is far

better than to resist and compensate later with all sorts of things not nearly

as good. Congrats. Sandarah

And Sandarah,

I love what you said:

" To eat is far better than to resist and compensate later with all sorts of

things not nearly as good. "

How very important and true!
