Is this bad?

Last night was one of those nights when Jeff and I were both scooting around town from one meeting to another and fast food just had to do for dinner. In the spirit of the new year, I decided to go through the Arby's drive-thru and order ONLY a market-fresh sandwich and a diet coke. 

In theory, this plan was good... BUT, the combo meal is just too good of a deal.  Basically, the fries are free, and I just couldn't pass them up.  So... sandwich, fries, and drink it was.



My good intentions lasted until I pulled into the parking lot for my meeting.  I finished my sandwich, ate a handful of fries, and headed in.  On my way, I made the very strong-willed decision to throw away the rest of my french fries.  I went inside feeling very proud and healthy.

Here's the catch.  On my way out the door, two hours later, the FIRST thing I thought of when I looked at the trash can was "I wonder if I can still get to my french fries?"

Is that bad?

(And, no, I didn't go in for the kill. Thankyouverymuch.)
