    I can't like myself for using up that many calories on a snack/cheat. I bought the Weight Watchers Chocolate Creme Cakes today. Hoping the little 3 bites of 90 calories will push off my chocolate craving. I have found out that if I ignore it and not treat myself I'll binge. Like, I'll want 2 big bags of M&Ms - almond and peanut butter instead. And, I've learned that the better, cleaner, I eat the less I crave chocolate and sweets.

    Yes :) I have ice cream almost daily :)

    What kind? Light? Full flavor? Just one serving? Just curious. My daughter loves ice cream, so it seems to be in the house a lot. I just try to ignore it or by my own snacks instead.

    IIFYM (if it fits your macros). /done thread.

    Have your cake and eat it too, good job working hard to meet your calorie goals and leaving room for a treat+++++ Couldn't imagine not having all of my favorite foods and treats in my life.

    I track my calories per week, rather than per day. That way I can allocate calories to the things I want and I don't have to freak out if I go over my calorie goal on a particular day. This makes like a lot less stressful for me.

    My treat for the day, or should I say week, was a chili cheese dog from Dairy Queen. I've still got a little over 400 calories left for the day. So I'm good. Now, will I have a chili cheese dog every day, or once a week? No. But, maybe once a month. Hence the word treat

    No. Absolutely not. It is never ever okay to have a treat. Ever. Never ever. Ever never. No no no. No treats for you.
