    Tracked: Yes
    Under calorie: Yes
    Exercise: Rest
    Steps: 3531
    Water: 128oz

    I attended an out of town bridal shower in the mid morning to afternoon and then we had a family day at my parents house so even though it felt like a busy day, most of it was spent on my butt. No exercise logged, but I did make myself pretty proud by saying no to donuts at the shower and then ordering something healthy when my family decided to order out for dinner.

    Any day when you say no to donuts is a HUGE SUCCESS!

    I had a great day but last night a whole different story. I craved sweets and chocolate that I felt like a drug addict looking for a score. I went through every cabinet every corner of the kitchen looking for something and of course I found it and went way overboard. Today I feel really bad for what I did and I know I can't do that again. I knew it was wrong but I didn't care in the moment.

    My question is how do I stop myself the next time????

    @Keepingtrack1234, I will take over for August. I’m still working from home and will be for a while, so I feel like I should step up.

    Thanks so much for taking over.

    The first thing I do when a craving hits is I drink a flavored water. I usually drink plain water so the flavored carbonated stuff will make cravings go away sometimes. If that doesn't work and I feel like I'm about to give in, I chew spearmint gum. It has such a strong flavor it almost always works. Also sometimes just leaving the kitchen helps. I'll go lay down on my bed and read a blog on my phone until it passes.
