Can't believe the days have gone by so fast!! I have been eating my new food & have had some delicious stuff.
Vegetarian Sloppy Joe, Chicken Noodle soup & pancakes! That's right pancakes! The packet makes one nice size pancake. Very tasty. Can use sugar free syrup.
Thanksgiving was successful-I had turkey, green beans & deviled egg. Was completely satisfied. I knew I'd get my dessert in 3 hours-a peanut butter bar that tastes like reese cup!
When I'm off work I have a harder time getting all my water in. Went to Mom's Saturday-took 5 empty water bottles and filled them with good ole well water. It's so much better than the filtered city water at my house!
I got a little off schedule Saturday night-had a pity party. I'm not sure why I let the bag of potato chips mess with me-but the chips won! I felt like a dog when I was done and Sunday.
With my new habits of health, I've been thinking about why I allowed the urge to eat over power my common sense. I simply didn't listen to the good angel on my shoulder!
Up till then, when I thought about eating I asked myself -am I hungry? The answer is always no.
I then started mentally listing the benefits of NOT eating when it's not meal time. The urge to eat would pass.
This time-I pushed the good thought to the rear of my brain and simply ate.
I didn' beat myself up. Now that I know why I've been able to withstand the temptation to eat, I hope next time I'll listen to my reasoning better.
AND I'm making me a list to put on my mirror so I'll see it every day.
It's almost a relief to get the "cheat" over. I've been dreading it since I started the program.
I'm just moving on....one day at a time....one meal at a time.
Hope you have a super happy day!
Colossians 3:12
Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves,
you must clothe yourself with
tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility,
gentleness and patience.

I am praying daily for myself and others that struggle with being overweight.
EPH 2:10 For we are Gods Masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
