Bad, bad girl!! See the chocolate covered almonds above that I ate at 3:15? Well, about 3:30pm I ate the rest of the bag! I should never have boughten them. I have by-passed lots and lots of goodies in my house that my family is eating, but I actually bought these for me and thought I could eat a few today and save the rest for another time.... no chance. They were calling my name. Won't do that again. When dinner time rolled around, I was full..... no appetite after eating the almonds.S: (9:00pm) 1/2 scoop choc. whey protein powder mixed with 1c unsweetened almond milk (wasn't hungry but wasn't sure if I needed some protein before bed since I missed dinner)

Now here's the worse part of the day - I bought the Easter Candy for my kids and ate some of it (about 10 chocolate eggs) - was hot all night and now I'm waking up feeling tired and puffy. Wish I hadn't done it but I literally forgot how bad eating like that felt. Glad I don't eat like this anymore! Seriously so happy to get back on track this morning with my morning shake, green tea, and a big glass of water!
