OK, I'm really hungry right now and all I can think about is food. It is TOM and I really would love to attack the candy bowl on the cupboard for the trick or treaters. I don't dare......
This has me thinking and trying to "plan" for some time off.....for the upcoming holidays. I really want to enjoy some treats but also don't want to have a repeat of the two month diversion from the beach I'm still trying to recover from.
So, how do you plan a cheat meal or day?
Halloween is only ONE day, Thanksgiving is only ONE meal, Christmas is only ONE day. My problem is that I love to cook treats. This week I have inundated my neighbors with carmel corn. Not just little bits of it either, huge pans of it. I would love to taste some (don't dare, sugar monster lurking). I would like some way to be able to guarantee to myself I wouldn't totally lose it just because it's a holiday. How do you do that????
Today at work I've been so munchy. I haven't eaten illegal foods but I've eaten a ton of food just to get me full. More than I've needed. Not sure how to handle myself right now. I was so unhappy with myself for falling off the wagon and had such a hard time getting back on. Phase 1 repeat was pretty yucky for me, but I did it.
Any ideas anyone????? My twisted thinking is that once I reach goal weight I should be able to eat what I want and NOT gain (I said I was twisted)
