For example, I bought a small pack of Peanut M&Ms on Saturday as a tiny treat (they are low GI after all
) and tonight (Wednesday) I remembered they were in my purse.. .after only having a couple on Sat. You don't realize how big that is for me! In the past, I would have scarfed the whole bag in about 30 seconds and either gone off on an all out binge, or would have berated myself for days for *cheating* and would have starved myself to *make up for it*.... and when I found them again, I had about 5, and put the bag back -- no guilt, no obsessing. I cannot believe the smallest pack of m&ms has lasted me nearly a week 
I think I have finally made that *connection* everyone talks about! It isn't as though I have never lost weight before -- I have, but gained it all back and some friends too... but it has never *felt* like this. It has always felt like this huge burden of barely holding it together from one meal to the next with all the unhealthy mindsets and actions I mentioned above.
This is actually an eating plan I can live with forever. I am just happy
Best wishes!
