Hey Rob, how’d the breakfast go this morning, chief? You make it to the Y to work out? I got your calls and called you back, but Chris said you were next door.

Breakfast was fine, but I cheated a little at dinner. A friend of mine graduated last night from paramedic school and I had a chocolate chip cookie and a glass of punch (no alcohol, just ginger ale and fruit punch.) I’m surviving.

Well, that’s a minor cheat. I know with you as well as me, it’s portion control that’s a killer. Actually, I’ll tell you EXACTLY what the killer always is for me: It’s having some sort of cheat food at one point during the day, and then it’s that little switch in your head that flips and you say: screw it, I’ve cheated already, I might as well go absolutely apeshit crazy and eat every bad thing I feel like eating. That’s the absolute killer. Because when you first eat a cheat food, yeah, maybe you tack on 500-700 calories that you didn’t need. But that’s not fatal. What’s fatal is when, over the course of the afternoon/evening, you throw down 2500-3000 more calories in additional crap, because you just totally threw in the towel for the day. That’s what kills.
Anyhow, sounds like you didn’t do that, so kudos to you, my friend. Keep it up, and don’t think that every single one of us isn’t watching you like a hawk, because we are.
