General thoughts on the day: I'm annoyed with myself, but this is a typical bad day. Where I do one thing I'm not proud of and then the rest goes down hill quickly. I would really like to find something to fight those afternoon cravings, but can't seem to figure it out. Maybe a small piece of dark chocolate? I don't want to say I'm 100% giving anything up, just working on moderation, and hunger cravings. I don't think it would be very realistic to give things up entirely, as that just creates more cravings. I also need to work on how I react to things in my alone time, as that's when things flare up.
