Oops I did it again

Well true to form - I've done it again - ignored the dangers of a red flag day! Its not the end of the universe - but I did have a plan to beat it and I ignored it!!

I licked the bowl!!......well not literally, of course, but a chocolate birthday cake I did just put in the oven and I did take a spoon to the bowl to scrape down the sides and lick that spoon!! (a few times.....)

Grr!! the calories in that are imeasurable - I just put it down as 100....few teaspoons maybe??? SEE!!! This is why I red flagged it - because I knew I have a problem with stopping the spoon from reaching my mouth - I had a plan - chew gum at the same time.  My excuse - I had no gum - but I did have toothpaste, so there goes that weak excuse out the window!!

Those few (delicious as they were) teaspoons took me over my 1200cal intake for the day.

Its not the calories that bother me - it's my will power - my ability to say NO I feel I have let myself down again - mentally .

So here it is folks - Another mini goal - tomorrow when I ice that cake and decorate that cake and serve that cake - I WILL NOT EAT A CRUM OF THAT CAKE!!

I have already bought a LeRice (166cal) for my dessert to eat when everyone else is eating cake so I don't feel like I'm missing out. 

I have told my husband my goal so I can be held accountable for my actions.

Watch this space for a full report of tomorrows cake avaoidance antics!!

I will succeed!!

As Promised - My diary entry for today - completed - honestly - 100%
