Day 107

Today ended up being a surprisingly challenging day.  At work the Employee Association decided to hold a recruitment drive, and that meant a free lunch including pizza, chips and a whole variety of desserts.  My initial plan was simply to grab a couple small pieces of pizza, but faced with all the food that ended up a lot more difficult than I imagined.  I know who brought the fancy, homemade Reese's cupcakes but whoever brought the chocolate cream pie was just evil.  Luckily I was able to avoid those temptations, but I still succumbed to some chips and cookies.

The real challenge though became what to do after work.  It was a somewhat long week, and by the end of the day all I wanted to do was go home.  Considering all the junk food though, I talked myself into a trip to the gym.  Then for dinner tonight I decided to turn things around a bit and merely have a small meal, instead of a more traditional dinner.  All in all, I'm a little proud of myself for turning what could have been a nightmare day into something positive.  I still want that cream pie though.

Food today:  breakfast was a piece of toast with peanut butter and milk (300 calories), lunch was pizza and chips (700 calories), snacks in the afternoon were a mix of cookies and more chips (450 calories), dinner was a grilled cheese sandwich (600 calories).  Exercise was an hour on the treadmill (814 calories).
