Last night - followup
I stayed out of the junk. The cookies and chocolate and candy did not pass my lips. I did, however, make a salad and have some cheese on it (which is treat-like to me) AND I had 5 dried apricots. So altogether could have been a lot worse.

Back to it
I’ve been eating clean/paleo, crossfit and generally doing okay lately. But with a few significant “lose control” slip ups.
