What do you tell yourself when you really want to eat something even though you know that it will not help with your weight loss goals?

    What are you going to give up, or what are you going to do to earn this?

    OR

    Just one. ;)

    1) Because if I'm going to indulge I have to think seriously if I want to give up my dessert (I love dessert)
    2) Because I'm in this for life, I'm not going to restrict myself because that sets me up for failure, moderation is key.

    before you have this, drink a BIG glass of water and if you still REALLY want it only have 1/4 of it.

    I ask myself if I really want it, and if I can deal with the consequences without getting upset or guilty.

    If I can be completely honest and promise myself I'm happy to see a gain on the scales the next day for this item of food, I eat it and enjoy it.
