Hi,
Yesterday we were stuck in cause of the snow. My work was closed (thank goodness)
Now normally, while stuck in I would always bake brownies or cookies.
I didn't do that-instead, since I had a chocolate craving, I had ONE TABLESPOON of lowfat frozen yogurt. And I stopped! I was satisfied, and didn't want any more. I bought a pint last Sunday, and I still have left
That has never happened before!
Today at lunch, I was out after a dr's a appointment. Afterwards, I really wanted a bagel. I haven't eaten one in about four months. Instead of getting a sesame seed bagel slathered in cream cheese, potato chips and a soda, I got a whole grain bagel with turkey, mustard and tomato-no cheese, diet iced tea. It came with a portion of potato salad. I had three very small bites of the potato salad and threw the rest of it out. I did eat the whole bagel, but I didn't have any snacks this morning (after a breakfast of whole wheat toast and low fat cottage chees) and no afternoon snacks either.
It feels so good to be in control
