Self critique:
Today was a bad day.

Later (before going to a friend's house, where they always have cake), I thought my fiancee said we were stopping for dinner first. (I was going to have a sub without bread "sub in a tub" from Jersey Mike's. I've never eaten there, but it sounded like a treat.) However, we got in the car and he said we didn't have time to eat before going to the friend's house.

I was mad, but it was a misunderstanding. I just would have eaten at home with my "safe" food. He often says that he gets hungry, but skips a meal and "the hunger pains go away". I am NOT that kind of eater. We have really different eating habits, so it could become an issue at some point between us. A few times before we left, a voice in my head told me to eat. I need to listen to that voice. I've gotten pretty good at it, and I know when I am "a little hungry" that it could easily get out of control into "I have to eat now" and then to "I will eat anything in sight".

Someone had made sushi and brought it to the gathering. It was good, and sushi is pretty low in Points. I had already planned to have a small piece of cake (if it was the kind I like. I'm a little picky about cake.) So....yeah. I just snacked a lot tonight.

I had to force myself to go to zumba because I was in a bad mood and I was really tired. However, I knew zumba would make me feel better, and it did. And it also made up for overeating a bit today.
