It's actually a two-fer...

I got up this morning, and instead of lounging around as usual, I asked my 3 year old if she would like to go for a walk! We walked for 30 minutes, and would have gone much longer, but she was hungry and needed breakfast. I will definitely be doing that again. It felt so good!!

Then, while making breakfast, my hubby woke up and came downstairs. He immediately got the bacon out of the fridge - but I said, "no bacon for me today". He was shocked, and asked why. We have two parties to attend today, and I'm being smart about my calories.

OK, maybe there's one more in here, too... I also only ate until I was no longer hungry, instead of finishing everything on my plate. That meant that a 1/2 stack of pancakes went in the trash, but wow - what a difference MFP is already making in my life!!!

Thanks to all my new MFP friends for your support and encouragement. It is already changing my relationship with food!!!!!!!!

    This. This was so hard to do. THROW AWAY food, I mean.

    Awesome NSVs!:smile:

    Thanks so much, everyone! I did not carry the conviction through this evening's festivities, but today's total calorie count would have been disastrous if I hadn't gotten off to a good start and had some great support waiting for me!

    I am looking forward to a good, long walk tomorrow, even if I have to do it at the mall (it's raining right now).
