It is amazing how delicious each bite tastes when you are on a restricted diet. I am enjoying every morsel of food that I put in my mouth. Exploding with flavor, every calorie is rediscovered. Not only am I enjoying my food but my body is adjusting to the smaller portions so that I feel full with less. This journey is a blessing!

    My BF gave me grief about scraping a plate 100% clean one night because what I'd eaten had amazing sauce.

    I responded, "The meal has been logged. If all of its calories are going to count against me regardless of how thorough I am, then I'm going to enjoy every. last. one."

    I just saw this pic today and now your post reminded me of it:

    Lol! It wasn't quite that bad. If I ever resort to actually licking the plates clean, it might be time to consider decreasing my deficit a bit. X)

    After 23 years, I have enough ammo in my arsenal to fire back at anything my husband what's to grief me about. LOL And after that long, he knows better. :P

    Licking the plate though, that's just part of good eating.

    OP, I think it's great that you're finding ways to include food enjoyment while working on weightloss. It makes a difference for many.

    That's why they invented biscuits, to soak up gravy.

    How do you wipe a plate with crispy bacon? Oh gods, you're not one of those soggy bacon people, are you?
