I fought the urge

Options
Yesterday I was really depressed. Normally, I would have gone for the chips or something sweet. I was out doing errands and I refrained from going in stores that sold those things. I DO know my weeknesses and until I am completely sure of myself, I avoid temptation. I was so proud of myself!!

    Way to go!
    I can empathize. I reach for chips when I want a snack. Nasty things!

    Of all the things I crave, chips are at the top of the list. Congrats on your willpower!

    I thought I was being really good - bought myself some dill rice chips which are 8 mini rice cakes for 60 calories. Only problem was it came in a bigger bag. So I thought, well I can have 6 more and then it's only 100 or so calories. An hour later - 8 more wouldn't hurt. It's only another 60.
    I finished the whole @8%^&# bag! 430 calories later - gee, I should have rubbed shoulders with you zoebeth yesterday, and maybe some of that willpower would have rubbed off.

    Back to it today. That lovely eating threw an extra pound on. Back to the drawing board!:bigsmile:

    Redalee... I am the exact same way! I love to eat wasabi peas. I always tell myself, okay, you can eat one serving and it's only 120 calories. The bag usually has about 6 servings in it. I typically can't stop at 1 serving, so 6 servings later I stop!!!!! HA HA! Man oh man, this is a journey.
