Keeta's Journal, 13 January 2011

I can't wait until this all finally becomes habit. Calorie counting is a big pain, but I gotta do it until it just becomes instinctive. Last night we went to my favorite restaurant and I actually only ate half my meal. I really thought while I was eating..."would I be just as satisfied by just eating 1/2 this sandwich?" and "if I ate the whole thing, would I juset feel uncomfortable, bloated, and guilty?". So I refrained from eating the whole thing on one sitting and actually chose to bypass my urge for always getting instant gratification. The meal was awesome, so I'll definitely be eating the other half tonight. LOL. But, i'm glad I made that smart decision last night.

Good job Keeta! Way to practice self-control. You would have probably eaten more than half your calories for the day if you ate the whole sandwich. It's not worth it! Keep it up girl and it will become instinctive. Or in my case for now...it just becomes simpler to calorie count...LOL!

Right now you do have to be conscious of everything you eat as well as avoiding binges. This won't be forever but because our full and hungry responses have been altered by our compulsion we cannot depend on them. Trust me I know exactly what you are going through. Hang in there Keeta you are doin the thing.
