So, I can't help it. I think I'll always have a fat girl that lives inside me. You know that little voice that tells you that if you don't have 3 cookies now, they won't be there when you want another one. So you have to have them now.
Ok, granted, it's only me and John doing the eating, so if they're gone, I know who to go to (if it's not me). But, it's still something I struggle with. I always worry we won't have enough food. Or, I won't make what John really wants to something. It's this weird internal struggle I have. AND....if we're suppose to live our life to the fullest and live as if it's our last day -- that doesn't give us the right to eat ANYTHING we want -- see my confusion? ha ha
I read in a magazine about a woman who would do the same thing. She would think that she had to eat a brownie because if she didn't, she might not get to enjoy another one. Which is a silly thought, and she came to the realization, that she COULD have it on another day and it would still be there and be JUST as good, or better.
This is my new thought, at least trying to be my newest thoughts. That if i want a cookie, I could have one now, or could wait because I'll want one another time and that time it'll be just as good -- or maybe NOT -- then I won't want another one.
I know I'm rambling, it's just that it's lunch time and the scale hasn't moved and it makes me want to get a whopper and large fries and a Frosty (yes, 2 different fast food locales).
I'm also mentally planning the meals for the week, which means I have to think about food and what sounds good, what would be good, what's easy, what's with what I have in the freezer/pantry, etc.
I'm thinking of making the blogging world accountable for me. I will NOT list what I eat in a day b/c how embarrassing, but maybe in some way making myself accountable by having to daily or weekly list my activity or something. I don't know......
On a good note -- "Self Bikini Body Boot Camp" is awesome. I really like it, especially b/c it's in my living room, but I'm committed to it.....

I thought about doing something like that. Start posting about my weight loss so I would be held accountable. We could be dieting blog buddies!
Self Bikini Boot camp? What is that?
I plan our meals for a week or two in advance. It really helps me stick to a grocery budget, but it also makes me think about healthier meals ahead of time. Because, sometimes if I wait until I'm hungry to cook, I'll cook something not so great for us. I also post our menu!
