Today I splurged a bit. And I’m okay with it. I ran for 40 minutes in the morning, ate well at breakfast and lunch. But we went to a concert at Oracle Arena last night and didn’t eat beforehand. I could’ve not eaten but I was hungry. Out of all the options, the hamburger seemed to be the best choice. There was no cheese on it, I didn’t add mayo and I only ate half the bun. I went over my points quite a bit (also had a vodka soda) but I’m okay with it. I was glad I didn’t get fries….not nutritional value there. And the other options seemed a lot worse.

I’m glad to be finding this balance. I can’t expect myself to be perfect every day. But I’m glad I at least had a good work out in the morning and ate well for most of the day. Tonight is Actelion’s holiday party. I’ve also set the expectation that I’ll splurge a bit. Allow myself a couple drinks but try to keep the food portions as healthy as I can and not feel the need to eat everything. Wish me luck!
