I behaved badly again yesterday. After leaving work early, I had a cheeseburger and fries, ice cream, and popcorn. I gave up on minding my eating earlier in the week, so the last few days have been a free-for-all. I still weigh the same as I did yesterday, which is the same as the day before, so at least I’m not gaining weight but need to be losing it. I have to rediscover some sense of self-discipline soon.

The ice cream habit during the summer is hard to resist. It’s hot, and my favorite state of ice cream is moderately melted anyway. But eating ice cream is basically eating a LOT of sugar and, consequently, calories. I suppose choosing Ihe simpler ice creams like plain chocolate or vanilla might lessen the caloric load, but I tend to favor the ice creams with cookies or brownies in them. Ideally, I shouldn’t be eating ice cream at all.

I’m going to try not to eat today until tonight. I’ll be having Torchy’s tacos with a friend, and that should be enough. We’ll see…
