So today did not go well. It started out going exactly as planned, but inexplicably on my way home from running I gave into an impulse and went to Wendy's and bought way too much food. I have no excuse, and there were plenty of outs on the way there, I just didn't take them. The only positive to be taken from my cheat is that I avoided buying soda to go with the large quantity of junk food I bought. As always I kind of hated myself afterwards as well.
So what does this mean for the diet? Nothing long term, or so I hope. Maybe I'll push back my semi-planned cheat day after I clear 100K. Maybe tomorrow I'll try and eat a smaller than normal load of food to make up for it. What's clear though is that my old impulses haven't changed completely. I should be better than this, but I am just not and every so often something sneaks through. So what this probably did do is waste a couple days of weight loss. I've been stagnating a bit over the last week anyway, this is just going to make it worse. The only real lesson to be taken from it is that every so often I need to make sure I think about what I'm shooting for.
Food today: peanut butter and english muffin (300 calories), PB&J (500 calories), some peanut butter on toast as a snack (200 calories), burgers and fries from Wendy's for dinner (2000 calories). Exercise was about 3 miles of running and 2 miles of walking (600 calories).
