Lesson Learned

I thought it would be a good decision to skip coffee yesterday. I put about a gallon of cream in each cup I have & I know that's tons of fat and sugar. Not to mention, amaretto cream is clearly a processed food, of which I'm trying to limit intake. Other options are black coffee, black coffee with sugar, or coffee with milk. I should really do some research on just how terrible milk is for me. I refuse to do the whole skim or 1 % crap here because it just doesn't taste right. To be frank, milk isn't my favorite choice for coffee.

There's just something about a flavored creamer. Italian Sweet Cream, Hazelnut, Amaretto, Irish Cream. Yum!

So. Back on track. No coffee for me yesterday. Which led to:

Breakfast:

fried noodles
everything bagel with cream cheese

Lunch:

rolled tacos with guacamole & cheese
rice
beans

Dinner:

chocolate covered peanut butter pretzels

Not the best choices I've ever made. I felt terrible (emotionally & physically) and was asleep by 6:00 pm.

It may be better to go ahead and have coffee with cream, rather than risk another day like yesterday.
