Cheating on your diet will come back to haunt you........somehow!! HAHAHAHAHA

Some days can be challenging to stick with a diet and the bad foods can be super tempting to eat. Sometimes we give in. I think I was being told somehow that giving in is a bad idea.

I was having a pretty successful day today even though I wasn't feeling very well all day. I drank my juices made with 100% veggies and fruit and made sure to stay kind of busy today. Cleaned a little, worked in my office, chatted with Alaina!! Nice calm day.

Once I picked my son up from school after my daughter got off the bus I decided to go to the store and try out Alainas roasted brussel sprout recipe. I had never even TRIED a brussel sprout in my life so I didn't know what to expect. I made them and maybe burned them a little but still edible. LoL I ate almost all of them because I was super hungry and craving FOOD not juice. They weren't bad at all. I wasnt a fan of the after taste but that may have been because I burned them. LOL

Anyways, after eating them I had to clean up from the kids dinner. I put all the left overs in a tupperware container. (Rice, corn, and chicken nuggets). It was making me want to eat it even though I was full from the brussel sprouts and corn. I am trying so hard not to eat anything to unhealthy for me and chicken nuggets are not good for you at all. But they looked so tasty!! I couldn't resist.

I grabbed one out of the container. Not like normal people eat them but with a fork. They are finger foods so why with a fork you ask?? Well, I thought stupidly to myself, "Well if I eat it with a fork I can't just shove a bunch of them in my mouth. That first bite is always so good I'll ending up grabbing them all and eating the rest of them. Its more effort to eat with a fork then your hands. Ill go with the fork." I know, what an idiot I am. And it makes it even worse that I am sharing these stupid thoughts!! hahahahaha

Well that's when it happened. I took a bite. While that bite was worth every ounce of taste on my tounge, it hurt like a son of a bitch. So now your probably asking yourself why it would hurt. Well I will tell you. I stabbed the shit out of myself on the inside of my cheek with that stupid fork!!! Once again, I'm an idiot! hahahahahahahahaha

After chewing the up that chicken, with it coated in that blood taste, I stood there feeling like the idiot that you are all probably thinking I was. I had just realized that Karma EXISTS!!!!! I was trying to cheat and lie to myself by letting myself eat the crap I was attempting and some what successfully eating. There fore karma gave me a nasty little punch in the, um, errrr.......cheek!!!

I felt horrible because I just cheated myself and now back to square one!! Maybe I sound like an addict trying to kick a habit. But I am trying so hard to eat healthy after years of doing nothing. And changing those habits are just as hard!! I guess the moral of this story is, if you are going to be on a diet and make the right choices DO IT ALL or don't do it at all. Or something bad will happen. It may be weight gain, health problems, or getting stabbed in the cheek with a fork. But whatever it is you won't be happy with the end result!!
