In case anyone was wondering, you CANNOT eat In N Out Burger at midnight and wake up the next day feeling dialed in and ready to rock. (If youve figured out how to do this, I am envious. Share your wisdom with me.) Late last night (way later than I normally stay awake) I thoroughly enjoyed my double double protein style (wrapped in lettuce) and I crushed the fries too--all while watching The Newsroom with my love (which of course made it even better). Heres the best part, though: I feel good about it today, too. Am I bloated? YES. Theres a helluva lotta salt up in that mofo! But am I beating myself up about it, regretting my decision? EFF NO. If I do that, it completely takes away from the pleasure of the experience. I always ask myself, will I regret this tomorrow? That, of course, depends on a host of factors--has my nutrition been mostly dialed in, am I exercising regularly, and so on. But what doesnt change is my answer: If I know Ill regret it, I dont partake. If Im confident I wont, I give myself a green light. If youre going to treat yourself with foods that dont necessarily serve your body, the treat has to extend to the day after as well. Its not a treat if it makes you feel like junk emotionally and causes you to say and feel self-loathing and self-deprecating emotions.
