Failure, but is it?

Ok just two days into this and not even have read the whole book I think "can I really follow this"? So here I sit typing this blog just putting it down as it comes into my thoughts. And this is me, I don't have someone writing it for me and heck I probably won't even proof read it because I have so much to do today. This is just "Jill being Jill".
So I woke up and got on the scales-not bad. Had an orange and apple, and my usually blueberry/banana protein shake. ALot of fruit already I know!!!!! So guess what we are having for lunch- you got it lots of veggies and I did.My morning snack was walnuts. I also had a plain turkey burger(NO BREAD)
So my morning workout went well. I had lots of energy was feeling light on my feet. Drinking my water. The day was going good. I went for a walk outside with the kids. Then I was tempted at my mom's (spagetti) but I didn't I thought I would just have a protein bar when I got home. The book says that it is NOT the best choice but I thought I have done so well to stay away from grains. So I end up having 2 P90X protein bars. Ok I know it wasn't smart but once I let myself have one the cravings were 2X as strong as they were before I had one. Hormones play a big part here. And trust me I'm still trying to understand that part of my system. The protein bars have milk products in it as well so I guess that is considered failure and not following the diet. I'm going to look at this as failing forward. As a coach I tell people to slowly work your way in a lifestyle change,not everything at once change. That is what I tried doing. While I read and finish this book I will get better at this diet. I will learn more and feel more confident that I'm following it correctly. Just because I failed doesn't mean that I can't keep trying to master it. Great People didn't get where they are by luck, they failed many, many times but they didn't stop because of it.

I'm hoping to give you a quick run down of what I have read. Maybe tonight.
