Why do I sabotage myself? Especially when I've been working hard. I was disgusted with myself when I got home. But, I had to realize that I had also done something good... I stopped and threw it away! Yeah for me. Now, I need to make it over the next hurdle to a) not stop and b) HAVE A PLAN! I tend to let my dinner plans go when hubby is traveling, but I just can't do that. I need to have simple, make-in-a-hurry meals for these kind of nights.
Just to add insult to injury, I looked up the caloric information on this site. Oh my goodness! I knew it was bad, but really...
okay -- here is the damage... 1/2 a sandwich
330 calories
20 grams of FAT
26 grams of carb
12 grams protein
Oh... and just to make me feel really good... to work it off I'd need to...
- 92 mins of walking
- 38 mins of jogging
- 28 mins of swimming
- 51 mins of cycling
1. Have a plan
2. Don't do it
3. Check out the caloric intake and what it takes to burn off the junk we put in our bodies.
All of that for 1/2 a chicken sandwich
that didn't taste good at all!

Oh WOW! This sounds so familiar. I did the EXACT same thing a week ago. I hadn't eaten fast food since December and we were running crazy so I stopped at BK - and ordered that damn chicken sandwich. About 3 bites in I realized it didn't taste good. (even the fries were kind of gross and I used to LOVE BK fries!)
You did better than me though - I ate my whole thing and wished I hadn't.
I am in the same boat...I keep commenting that I need to lose weight, but my eating is totally out of control. Sometimes I think that I am helpless...
You're definitely not alone, sista! It's hard juggling it all, especially when hubby is out of town! We're trying to make Subway our "go-to" fast food, but old habits die hard.
Thanks gals... I know most of struggle... I wish I could get to the bottom of it... great idea to make subway the fast food joint... I wish they had a drive thru... they do in scappoose... love that!
