August 1.  When I was little, this was my favorite day of the year, because it was the beginning of my birthday month.  I could count down the days until my birthday.  I think I got confused and thought today was my birthday, judging by the ice cream I consumed tonight!!
Today was not a good food day.  I was fine until about 3:00 this afternoon, when I decided I was hungry.  I had been given a garden-fresh tomato, and I had some chicken, so I decided to have a delicious sandwich.  When there was half a tomato and some chicken leftover, I decided to have another!!  Yes, they were absolutely wonderful.  Yes, I feel bad about eating two sandwiches.  Yes, I thought eating the ice cream was a logical next step.  I was misinformed.  Oh well, looks like I'll be attending Power Hour tomorrow!!
I did work out during the Power Hour at Curves today, and later walked two miles.  This Sunday is the NYC Half Marathon.  I could attempt to rationalize the excess in food consumption.  But the fact is that I ate too much today.  I know I should have just left the house and gotten away from the food, but I didn't.  I chose the wrong action.  Realizing my error in judgement and the resulting poor choice is a small step in the right direction - hopefully next time I will act instead of eat.
Otherwise today was a fairly routine day - I accomplished several things (including making my daily list) but still have several things that didn't get done. 
Tomorrow is a new day, full of new efforts, new struggles, new accomplishments, and new focus.  Maybe that's the best part of today - to make mistakes, realize how to avoid the same mistakes, and to get back on track, realizing I still have a ways to go.
