see food and eat it diet!!!
Hi all, Bit cross with myself cos my collegue brought a chocolate muffin to me today at my desk (cos it was her birthday) I felt too mean to refuse it so I sat there looking at it and it was whispering seductively to me “look at my moist sponginess and my chocolatey chocolate bits….bla bla bla” ( those muffins never shut up!!) In the end it just got the better of me so I afraid I ate it! I had a really healthy lunch of couscous and salad and beetroot (I am addicted too jo!) an apple! then while I was getting dinner ready for the family I was so hungry I was picking at that and then went out with friends for a Chinese meal! I did try and listen to my stomach saying it was full but they have banana icecream on the menu which is one of my favourite things! So not a really great day foodwise and didn’t even do any exercise so really I have a cheek showing my face on this ‘ere blog!!! BUT tomorrow is another day, and I am enjoying the ride!(thats MY excuse!)…going to really concentrate on eating slowly tomorrow and also get my lazy bum on the treadmill and work that banana icecream off again! Wishing you all good things xx
I'm afraid I have the same bad habit of picking while preparing the food - my dinner sometimes ends up as just vegetables because I've eaten all the meat! What do you reckon - sticky plaster over the mouth?
Thank goodness for new days.
I (on principle) never say yes now (I would not have thought it possible 6 months ago) and have seemed to have somewhat of a reputation for doing so. People tend to fall into two categories of a)well done on saying do b) go on, what harm will it do?
The way I treat this second group of people is almost to see it as a battle, and by saying no I am winning that battle ... does that make sense.
Apologies for the ramble, I think what I am trying to say (as a fellow food talks to me kinda girl) it is possible to say no, and the more you do it, the easier it gets.
Have a good Friday.
Wendy, can you try doing what I do when it comes to dinner - Kev generally cooks it ;-)
I've just listened to Pete's Day 5 and says "be your own best friend" and be gentle with yourself. Hey it was only one day so get on that treadmill and you will feel tons better.
Luv Elaine xxxx
