Have to agree with National. There is no trick. You either don't eat or you do.
My mother and I are making our chocolate/peanut butter candy this week and I can't wait! This time, we are using regular almond chocolate bark but we are using light peanut butter and i can't believe it's not butter...I won't be eating any but she wants to try it out to see how it tastes. =)
I have a goal and I do NOT want to be part of the statistic of those people who gain 5-15 pounds during this season. It is MUCH harder to get off the second time around. I just keep reminding myself of that and keep it moving!
If you'd like some healthier dessert options to make, try this site:
http://www.skinnytaste.com/search/la...sert%20Recipes - There's everything from fudge balls, skinny red velvet cupcakes, all diff kinds of cakes and pies...and all with 50% + less fat/calories than regularly! She even posts skinny rice krispie treats!
The key is choosing one or two and making those and not going overboard if you are going to have one or two. When you eat the things you and your mom are making, they basically equal one whole meal!! Trust me, I know, my mom loves making those. I wouldn't dare eat one in fear of putting on weight. AT THIS POINT. Maybe once I reach my goal. But the only thing you can do now is pick yourself up and start anew tomorrow!
We all fall off sometimes, just hop back on! You can do this!!
We are also going to try and make the zucchini cake and fudgy snow balls. They look YUMMY and they have the caloric intake as well as weight watchers points.
ps. I went to school at OU for a year before transferring and MMMMMMMM @ Buckeyes!!! I can't even imagine!!!
