getting over it...

Getting over it....getting over a lot.

I am trying to get over my fears. Fears in life and in the "weight-loss" realm.

So today I was tempted. I ordered lunch to test my temptations. Oliveo Grill in Tempe has the best "greek fries" and on days when I am just craving junk food, that is what I order. Today is one of those days.

So I ordered, a grilled chicken breast, with a side of tzatziki, some baklava, and an order of Greek fries (for my coworker AMR). The food came, and I thought. Just one. I can have JUST ONE. However, there is no lying. We all know it. Just one leads to, "Well I can have two...two won't kill me." Well, two turns to three and three turns to four and before you know it, you have eaten half the box.

I opened the box, inhaled the pure deliciousness. Closed the box and told AMR to enjoy. I was over it. I know I have the right to "live a little" every now and then, but I have to learn control. And, each day, I am getting a little closer to control.

My next "getting over it" will be "getting over" my fear of falling while doing push-ups.
