Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I love that!!!!!!! Yay!

It was so funny, I was eating today and then got up for a second to do something else and then came back to my plate and picked up my fork again. And then I thought, "Wait a minute. I'm not hungry. Why am I picking up my fork again?"

Then I put the plate in the fridge and got it out two hours later when I actually *was* hungry... because EVERY BITE IS A CHOICE! Yay! It really works!

I agree I love it, before I ate operated like someone was making me eat cakes and cookies. It is my choice! I love it

I wish I could say that it works 100% of the time. (Sometimes my answer is, "Yeah, it's a choice. And right now I choose to BINGE!!!")

*sigh*

So, I'm a work in progress. Aren't we all?

Still, I think this mantra definitely lessens the damage.
