So it&#8217;s true. I&#8217;m not perfect nor should you ever imagine that I am.\u00a0 Everybody needs to just eat the meal they are dying for, within reason, sometimes. Everything in moderation of course.\u00a0 **Footnote: I ate Taco Bell <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">after<\/span><\/strong> going to Body Rock class at the gym where I was pretty sure my triceps were just going to melt away. I mean seriously, how many push ups does a girl need in her life? How many squats is too many squats? Are you sure that&#8217;s not going to kill me? <em>I hear Frankie saying somewhere: It won&#8217;t kill you.\u00a0 You can do another! NAMASTE! <\/em><\/p>\n<p>To be clear: other than usual work stress I am not going through some sort of emotional trauma.\u00a0 I just have normal woman-hate-the-world-syndrome. But today I just couldn&#8217;t make a better choice and I think that&#8217;s ok too.\u00a0 Sometimes life just happens.\u00a0 Since I know how many calories I burn in a Frankie Class, I know how many I can eat.\u00a0 Granted, I also have to account for the high sodium content.\u00a0 I believe that as long as I&#8217;m being honest with myself about where I am and my choices, it will be moot. Now this isn&#8217;t about forgiving my poor choices like they don&#8217;t matter or reasoning with myself because I feel guilty.\u00a0 When I have a takeout meal nowadays, I&#8217;ve already made sure that I&#8217;ve balanced it with something else.\u00a0 I&#8217;ll always wish I ate less fast processed food no matter if I do once a year.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/yogapantsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/22911.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-407\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/yogapantsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/22911.jpg?resize=400%2C320\" alt=\"22911\" width=\"400\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/yogapantsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/22911.jpg?w=400&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/yogapantsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/22911.jpg?resize=300%2C240&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>During my weight loss journey over the last 16 months (holy cow, really?!?)

(Possible future blog? Look for it.) So while I do wish I never had the craving for fast food, it&#8217;s inevitable for me.
