Sheesh - when will I stop learning? :-)

Yesterday, I went to a Kindergarten conference with some colleagues from school. There was a light dinner served and so I made sure not to eat any snacks during the day so that I could use the calories, etc., for the dinner. I had a little bit of tossed salad, pasta salad, a bun (without butter) and a piece of chicken. Then, I had some fruit (yummy pineapple), strawberries, but then I had some goodies - I figured that it would be okay to have a little.....yeah, right......I ended up having two cookies, and then a couple of little, tiny, desserts (a couple of mouthfuls each). First of all, I didn't need that many desserts - and second, it was way too much sugar and my body was not happy and let me know. I didn't mind having a little treat (after all, I did leave room for one), but I should have stopped at one. In the future, I will have to make a choice and make it a good one -one that will make it worth the calories, etc. So, again, no guilt feelings, but a little annoyance at myself. That's okay, though - I'm still on a learning curve. :-)
Menu for today: breakfast - egg and cheese toasted sandwich, lunch - pita, hummus, pineapple, snacks - apple, granola bar, supper - beef fajitas. The fajitas had sirloin steak, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, grilled green peppers and onions, sour cream and salsa. I am looking forward to having this supper again - it was so yummy!
