After a few weeks of resistance I am getting my mind right about actively making choices each time I want to put food in my mouth. Last night I took out a chocolate bar, looked at the calories and decided that even the per piece calorie price was more than I was willing to pay. Also, I decided that when I do decide to eat chocolate it will be my favorite kind to make it a real treat. I'm not sure yet when that will be, but it is not today...so far. J

Great control. I always think if I'm going to eat something special, it's got to be worth it.

I love this. I think it's important to treat ourselves, but to make sure it fits what we want to accomplish in our day. I've made my own dark chocolate truffles so that when I want a treat I can have one for the right number of calories that I'm willing to part with.

I'm right there with you. I actually spent a good five minutes in the ice cream department at the store today, and finally walked away, reminding myself that this whole journey is just one decision at a time. You're doing great!
