It seems obvious, but when you eat something "bad" -log it! It is usually not as bad as you think, you regain power by taking ownership of it and best of all, it reduces the guilt.

    So true. When I stay honest, I have no need for justification or excuses. I can face it head on, deal with it and move on.

    Very well put. We are only human and need to be accountable and not beat ourselves up over being "bad". Once we accept we made a mistake we can learn from it and move on

    this is so true, when i log everything good or bad i stay accountable to myself and others and many times i can plan better next time.
