I am sick today, and things are not going well. I have the worst cravings for cookies. Maybe because my body is not feeling well, and it thinks the cookies will make it better? I'd been doing really well up until today.

Of course part of it may be that because I am sick I cannot go out tonight with some friends, (where I was PLANNING to ignore my diet

). So maybe it's the disappointment?

Whatever it is, it is hard.

But I feel proud of myself. I went out (to buy tissues and cough drops) with every intention of buying cookies. Either pre-made dough or bakery cookies or chocolate chips to make them myself. And instead I bought a tiny single serving bag of chips ahoy. So now I've had my cookies, and I feel like I can resist further temptations better. And the bag was only 170 calories, as opposed to the hundreds of calories I'd have eaten if I'd baked them myself.
