Anyway, why did this happen? I have some things going on in my personal life that made me get really stressed out which in turn made me want to eat. I didn't eat all day, mind you, but I did order a pizza which wasn't the best choice I could have made given that I am supposed to be doing a 60 day juice feast, drinking fresh pressed juice and eating only healthy foods.
So why does this happen? Well, I think it's because I turn to food for comfort. I am a total stress eater/drinker. Yesterday was no exception. I got stressed and I wanted to eat something that gives me comfort: Pizza. I love pizza. Pizza and I have a long history together. For as long as I can remember, pizza always makes me happy which is why I think I chose to order one yesterday when I was in the throes of a crisis. I still had juice too so the day wasn't a total loss, but still. Pizza, take out pizza wasn't a good idea.
So was ordering and eating that pizza the best plan? No, because I am supposed to be changing how and what I eat so I can be healthier and lose weight. I also feel really bloated and sluggish. I am starting to feel that bread and grains are something that I am going to have to give up long term if I am going to lose and maintain my weight. I am definitely not stepping on the scale today!
Anyway...it was one day, one meal and I forgive myself. No one is perfect and realize that today is a new day. A fresh start so to speak. I took the leftover pizza and put it in the freezer so it won't be so easily available. Today I will make better choices.
