I've been very good about eating organic, eating fruits and veggies, and staying away from processed sugar. In fact, the last time I had a fast food meal was Normal Medieval Faire! So, I decided to splurge, because it couldn't hurt, right? Um. Wrong. So very wrong.
Yesterday was nuts. Work was crazy. After work, I took the Terror to her anger management class (dog obedience), I did a Zumba medium intensity mid-length class, went hunting for hat supplies, and went to Wholefoods with the roomie. By the time we got done at Wholefoods, it was 8:00, and I didn't feel like going home, making a meal and eating at 9:00 or 9:30, so we stopped at Long John Silver's. I was really looking forward to the greasy chicken-y goodness that is LJS chicken planks. I substituted corn on the cob for fries and ignored my coleslaw as though it were the plague in the hopes of making the meal a little less horrific nutritionally.
When we got home, it was just wonderful as I imagined it would be. However, 45 minutes later, I was hating myself. I had intestinal cramps for the first time in recent memory. I felt horrible all evening. For me, it just hit home how much I don't need that crap in my body. I'm good with the foods I've been eating. I have more energy, and I'm in a better mindset. I think I'll just stick with it and not splurge anymore.
