Fruit vs chocolate

ratherbeskiing

So I just ate lunch. I made a ham and cheese w/ raspberry honey mustard on light wheat- toasted. yum. I wanted something to go with it. I picked up chips and though- no, I want something sweet and soft- so I got sugar free jello pudding snack and 100 cal brownies - 10 cals more then the chips- I then realized that I did not want that either- I ended up eating blueberry apple sauce and a banana with honey.

I was eating it and I was thinking I put down chips and two chocolate items for fruit?!? When did this happen?! I chose fruit over chocolate and chips?!?! and with the honey my sweet tooth was taken care of!

Did anyone else have any moments like this today??

Blueberry apple sauce sounds amazing!

A month ago, I found myself eating a banana instead of a sugar free chocolate pudding. I felt proud of myself for that choice. Plus the banana made me feel happier than what the chocolate pudding could have done. :happy:

Sorry if that sounded weird, but it's true.

I do that all the time with fruit or yogurt.. I love it!

Yesterday I was soo hungry but I didn't know what to eat so I just poured a serving of cereal with not even half a glass of skim milk & and an apple - 200 cals and I was full. Before I would have poured the whole bowl and a full cup of milk (about 300-400 cals?) and been like hmm I want something sweet now .. yum i think there's brownies in the kitchen (another 300 cals? + added sugar)! No wonder I was gaining weight like it was cool!

I'm still a choco-holic. I eat a chocolate flavored protein bar almost every day, and I absolutely CAN NOT resist when my boss has chocolate pieces on her desk. I love fruit, though, and I always have. So I just don't keep much chocolate around the house, and I'm fine snacking on the fruit or yogurt.

I just ate a nectarine and it hit the spot! So yummy, I actually never realized how good they were before today, and so worth 64 calories!

great job! I'm sitting at work craving my usual post-lunch sweet fix, and instead of grabbing a couple Hershey kisses like I usually do, I found myself craving the grapes I have in the fridge! those bad cravings are slowly but surely going away
