Struggling with Guilt Today

We're going to Zoo Brew tonight, and the beers I will drink take up more than one third of my daily allotment. Today, we also had our company lunch from Smokey D's BBQ and the guilt I have for indulging a bit at lunch as well as what I'm going to have tonight and for dinner is a bit much.

I know it doesn't matter. I know I need to eat regardless. I know that even if I have five out of seven great days, I'm still making forward progress. Why is my brain being so mean and telling me I should skip dinner or that I've done bad?

I haven't done bad!! Food has no moral attachment. Food is just food. It nourishes my body and gives me energy. Honestly, I should be looking at it as bulking up a bit for my weekend of outdoor activity on the lake. Getting in those pre-calories so I have enough energy to kayak and swim!

I think its time for another list. Here is a list of 10 things that I love to eat or drink that have no moral attachment or association:

1. Reese’s!

2. Cheesecake!

3. Boneless wings!

4. Beer!

5. Garlic cheesy bread!

6. Sweet wine!

7. Croutons with salad dressing!

8. Ice cream bars!

9. French's Fried Onions!

10. Sesame Chicken!
