Debating is such a wonderful thing....you can take a topic...any topic and show the good, the bad, the ugly.....or whatever else....think about it for as long as you want, discuss it with people and still never really come to any sort on conclusion as to which is the correct view of such topic. You can use it as an excuse to not do something....or you can let the odds out weigh one way or the other in your favor so something sounds much better than it probably really is.

As of Monday my "no excuses" policy went into effect and what a good decision!!!! so far this week it has made a substantial difference in everything! my eating....I have successfully stayed witin my calories without a hitch and tracked everyday....I've also worked out every day except for wednessday....no excuses....wednessdays are usually my rest days.....I'm pretty proud of myself!

So what does this have to do with debating?? Well tonight is my Erik's birthday.....and that is wonderful and exciting...but it means cake.....now I'm not really debating about cake....because I have enough calories left for my day to have it if I want it type of thing....and when I get home I will decide if I do or not....but I'm trying to debate wether Erik's Birthday is an excuse or not.....LOL....I mean really??....I suppose it's all in the context of which I base my decision and how responsible I am in doing so. Now as I said I have enough calories so that is the responsible me....and if I'm being responsible that means that perhaps it is not an excuse?? to have cake??......hmmmm....anyhow...
I have untill 9pm tonight to decide what I am going to do and how it fits into my policy.....

What do you think? :)
