Such a great question. I don’t think it’s wise to deprive myself completely. That would almost guarantee a binge later. So I bought some chicken, salsa, and the smallest quantity package of corn tortillas, which I will bake myself, to make chicken nachos. Hopefully, that will help me to feel that I am able to enjoy the day, but not go overboard and lose my way. Thank you for asking!

Thank you! I wasn’t able to watch the super bowl because we don’t have cable tv.

My friend texted to tell me my girl scout cookie order is ready. I placed the order in December, before I found the gumption to restart my program. 12 boxes that I would probably have eaten in about a month, maybe 2. Hard to not feel shame about that.

I was thinking about going through my cabinets this weekend and pulling out all the things that will not help me get where I want to go, then taking the donation to the food bank. I’m hoping they will want 10 boxes of girl scout cookies also. The other two boxes are going to my daughter at college. Her favorites. That’s my plan. Thank you for asking. 
I think I feel ashamed because it’s like returning to the scene of the crime. Every year, I order the cookies, binge on the cookies. It’s a pattern I was ready to repeat. But you’re right, I’m not repeating it this year. And I can allow myself to be proud of that. I’ll work on it. Thank you.

I didn’t even know this thread existed, if ever I needed a thread right now it is this one. I was thinking about a food diary. For the last 4 or 5 days I have managed to reduce my chocolate to a couple of pieces a day and replace the rest with fruit. its was just getting ridiculous bc I would eat a whole packet of chocolate digestive biscuits with just one cup of tea, there is just no need for it.
