Daily Stats, 4/12/05 - Straight to hell with you, pizzaboy

As it turns out, pizza is a binge-trigger for me. Who would have guessed that? (um, everyone who has ever known me?)

The calorie burn on the workouts was probably enough to redeem me for the pizza, but that's still no excuse. The last two pieces, I just ate because they were there.

Look at it this way... you don't eat it everyday, AND you modified your work out to fix the damage! In the scheme of things it probably wont affect much :) I bet you enjoyed EVERY BITE of it which makes it worth it in the end!

well, it wasn't exactly like that. I worked out BEFORE I ate, so it was sort of modifying my food to match my workout. And not even consciously. :)

The thing is, too, that I didn't really enjoy those last slices. I was full already, they didn't taste particularly good to me...I just ate them to eat them, I guess. If I had enjoyed every bite, I wouldn't feel as guilty about it as I do.

I'm not beating myself up over it or anything, I just wish I had quit while I was ahead, you know?
