Mistakes

I've made enough of them throughout the course of my 32 years (okay, 33 in a few months). For example, tight rolling my jeans, bleaching my hair, I could go on but care not to embarrass myself more. :)

I made two mistakes this hunt, gather, grow week. The first and probably the most egregious was my immunity item. I chose coffee as my item. Stupid. Oh how I have missed cheese!!!! I am probably going to have cheese for breakfast tomorrow to compensate for my cheese withdrawal. Dually noted for the next 6FIT.

My second mistake occurred on Friday night. Since starting 6FIT, I have been doing really well not eating after 8pm, it hasn't been that difficult either. On Friday night, I not only wanted to eat after 8pm but I wanted to house some caramel corn popcorn someone had left at my house, it was a double evil. So I had a choice to make, break two rules and indulge, OR I could eat after 8pm but something on the hunt, gather, grow menu.

I chose to break only one rule, I ate after 8pm but I ate granola. My mouth was wanting sugar and this was something sweet. It satisfied my craving and got me past the caramel. Whew. :)

Anyway, on to cardio week! I'm ready......I think! :) See you in the trenches!

  1. Hey Leta.

    That's not so bad, I constantly break the 2nd rule because I get back home so late either from work or from workout/event/etc. So that my dinner time is late. I still have to work on that, so you're way way ahead of the game. It's good you know what "your must have immunity item is", I kept flip flopping between flavored water, or a greek salad wrap sandwich, that by the time I figured what I wanted, it was the last day of the natural food challenge. Epic fail? ;) :)

    See you in the trenches.

  2. P.S. Since you were so cool to share some embarrassing mistakes, I thought I return the favor and offer a few off the top of my head.. so in keeping with the theme of food.....

    One big mistake I made in highschool was mistaking that big scoop of tapioca pudding I popped into my mouth, was actually mayo. (shudder). I probably ran faster to the waste basket than a racedog crossed the finished line. ;)

    A bigger one was at an Easter dinner over my buddies house when I was an undergrad. The big slab of mayo I spreaded on my ham (I wasn't big on mustard as I am now back then), was not may but actually horseradish. I think there wasn't enough water to put out the fire in my mouth. :)

    Guess it may explain why I get cautious whenever I look at mayo. :D
