Food Journal 1/14/2016

Lunch:
- Leftover Thai fried rice with beef
Dinner:
- Paleo Pad Thai
- Snickers ice cream bar for dessert
Observations
- Today is one of those super emotional days where everything feels like someone is coming after you, deliberately snubbing you or any number of irritating things that makes me second-guess myself.
- I really let my emotions control me yesterday. This would be a good journal prompt.
- I noticed today that the beef in my lunch was not high quality.
- I made a concession and allowed myself 1 ice cream bar...it was not needed, I didn't love it, and it didn't solve my problems. I did notice that my "have to consume all sugar" trigger was activated.
Fixes
- When I feel like there is a rub between a coworker and me, I like to talk with them in person about the issue at hand. Technology is great, but it isn't as efficient at communicating tone, intent and concern as in person communication.
- If I have trouble overcoming my own pride, I usually pop open Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People" to prod myself forward.
- Another reason to not eat out - you can't predict the quality, unless you go to a really nice place (which there is a shortage of out where I live).
- Pull out journal when tempted by sweets. I'm still not to the point where I can do 1 treat and leave it at that.
