Good Riddence to Bad Habits: KFC Edition

So if you follow me on Twitter, or my public Facebook feed (which is basically my twitter feed on Facebook), you heard that I ate KFC last night. Big deal, right? Well, yes it is. I treated myself to "real KFC", I got extra crispy instead of grilled. I hadn’t done that in probably a year and a half. I thought I was giving myself a treat.BIG MISTAKE! My stomach felt horrible last night and I had trouble falling asleep. I woke up in the middle of the night and my stomach was bugging me so much I couldn't fall back asleep. Now here I am, more than 24 hours later and my stomach is still upset. Gee, I wonder why. As it is, I have no gall bladder and that can make life “interesting”. I have nobody to blame, I did it to myself.

I'm think it’s the amount of fried I ate. Usually the amount of fried I eat is limited to a Wendy’s chicken patty or less. What I ate last night was equal to two Wendy’s chicken patties or more. Eating that kind of food was normal for me. I thought nothing of eating things that were totally bad for me and in large quantities. Granted, you can eat that kind of thing on Weight Watchers, but in a smaller portions and the question is, "Will your body accept it?". Obviously mine didn't. I've changed my habits so much that the KFC sent me in a tail spin. No wonder I felt like crap when I was at my heaviest. One of the two times I went over points I ate so much, about 30 extra points, I had physical pain! Looking back, I felt pretty miserable. Fewer pains and problems now. I've learned garbage in garbage out,

After I ate my KFC, it was like 27 points, I turned to my husband and said "That is what I used to eat". I was appalled that I used to eat that, proud that I have changed my habits and proud of how far I've come. Then, my husband said to me "And then you'd have ice cream". I was shocked. I had no idea I was so out of control. I'm so ashamed. However, that is in the past and I'm a new person. So happy! Although I will admit, it did taste good;-)
