The detox plan, day 16
Remember when I caved last week and had a Reese's cup? I'm proud to say that I had a frosty from Wendy's in my possession (a generous gift from a very sweet, well-meaning mom at the clinic) and did not eat it. I had to have a chat with my sponsor (shout out to Savannah!) who talked me out of falling off the wagon. My immediate thought was "IMMA EAT THAT SHIT UP" but then the scary monster in my head went away and the rational side came back. I'm pretty damn proud of myself for not caving though. Two weeks ago I could have easily rationalized myself into eating that frosty. It always starts with "no, you shouldn't eat that" and moves to "well, maybe if I eat the frosty I'll just have a light dinner" or "I'll work out extra hard at the gym tonight (HA!) " back to "What are you thinking? You had a giant burger for lunch. Obviously you can't have a frosty." The script varies but the result is usually the same. Frosty wins it all! Not today! In the battle of Frosty vs. Detox, Detox wins! Everyone loves an underdog story.
