Quotes to ponder:

"When we’re hungry, our proclivity for making food related blunders increases by a bajillion percent."

"The only foods that are 'bad' are those that you can’t tolerate, can’t control once you start, or hate the taste of."

"Ok, so you goofed up. You made a minor error on one of the thousands of days that you’ll likely live a dribble in the bucket of life that won’t mean a thing to your results in the grand scheme of things."
