Going Auto Pilot, With Chocolate

I have been posting exercise over in the right side column, but working late this week has keep me from doing more here. In fact I put a very short post on AATC this morning.

Over the past couple of days meals have been ok. But I have to confess to straying into some candy issues. A little would be ok but this was just stupid on my part. I stopped at QT Thursday evening for something to drink and I noticed a sign for M&Ms 2 for 2 dollars. My brain switched into automatic pilot as it reasoned "what the heck I can spare the points for one of these and save a bag back for another day." A little while later I was enjoying the first bag and soon after that the second. I just reached out and opened it with giving it any thought. Now to make it worse, these were the king size bags. You know, the ones that look like a single serving but contain 2 servings. Then on Friday I stopped for gas and grabbed a 3 muskteers bar. I just don't know what I was thinking.

I guess what is bothering me is how automatic this seemed. This was old behaviors coming back and I don't want that. I've worked too hard over the past months to let this take control. And earlier this week I had a great weigh in.

So today is not about starting over, it's about realizing each day (or hour) that I need to keep focused.
