Just had a pre-op ooops. Ugh.

I was snacking on cookies that were supposedly "diet" while at a meeting. I had 8 of them knowing that it was too much. Got back to the car and googled the brand. There is 100 calories PER COOKIE! How the hell is that a "diet" cookie? I feel like my whole day is ruined now.

    The serving size was 3 cookies. I want to know how 300 calories worth of cookies is considered diet? I meet with my NUT tomorrow. Now I am scared for my weigh in.

Yikes on the bad labelling of those cookies! Dang! Don't stress it though. We all make mistakes, no one is perfect, and if you beat yourself up, you'll only feel bad. Just say oops, and move on. You are doing great with your loss so far, so keep it up!

I agree, let it go! Do not use that as a way to screw up the entire day <- I used to do this. It's easy to get in the mindset of, "It doesn't matter what my day of eating looks like because I already screwed it all up with 800 cals on cookies. What's the point, I'll start fresh tomorrow. Yada, yada, yada. Don't do it! You are doing great- 84 pounds is remarkable. Don't stress! :)

Don't beat yourself up. You thought the cookies were diet. I intentially ate some pretzel bites 5 days before my surgery. I felt bad, but those pretzel bites were EXTREMELY good. I still lost 3 pounds in less than a week on my modified diet. Had I not had the pretzel bites it may have been 3 and a half. Anyway, my surgery went well and I have been on liquid for 13 days. I have no regrets about that last hurrah! :D

Chalk it up to learning the hard way and move on! Tomorrow is another day!
