Eating well without going crazy

I am so proud of the way I ate last night.  It wasn't the healthiest day (I had french fries and fried chicken, after all) but it was well-controlled (but not crazy insane).

For breakfast, I had a small (I mean, quite small) bowl of cereal (Reese Puffs) and milk.  Basically, I get a black bowl, pour a bit of milk (probably 1/3 of a cup) and just enough cereal for a single layer.  It sounds kind of bizarre, like I'm trying to count every single puff, but it's actually because I don't have much time to eat the cereal so I only pour enough to get in several bites.

Then at work, around 8am, I ate a large peach.  It was kind of old but it tasted pretty good.  I was a bit hungry at mid-morning, but I didn't eat anything.  At 12:30pm, I ate some peach yogurt and contemplated whether I wanted to go buy french fries or not.  I knew I didn't really need the fries, but I didn't want to deny myself of something I really wanted (which would probably cause me to binge later).  So at 1pm, I went and got the fries (the serving size is fairly large and I used 1 packet of ketchup).  When I eat while I work, I tend to eat slower, which is good because then I don't feel too stuffed afterward.  I also drank about 1/3 of my Minute Maid Pink Lemonade (20oz) that I got on Friday.

For dinner, I ate salad w/ Ranch dressing (plenty, might I add), plus cheese and a piece of Church's Fried Chicken (thigh).  It was yummy.  I almost ate a 2nd piece but then I thought - eh, I don't really need a 2nd piece.  After dinner, I brushed my teeth.  At one point, someone offered me some ice cream but I turned it down.

So all in all, it was a great eating day.  I had some treats but didn't go all out crazy at night.  Yay!
