Perhaps there’s someway I could allow myself one meal a month to enjoy these things again. Will have to think about that one.
Best to all.

Hey Bo! 
I've been actually giving this whole topic some thought lately. IE: The treats on the weekend.....it can get out of hand very easily.  Mainly due to the fact that we need more than the 5 weekdays to undo damage we can do in the 2 days over the weekend. I know that I need to tell ymself on a Friday that this upcoming weekend needs to be on plan....  this is when my scale is going higher than I like it to be....or if I am in weight loss mode.
Yes, I do allow myself an old favorite food about once a month...it keeps from from feeling deprived. It also allows my body a little bit of a favorite food without a binge or adverse effects on the scale. 
Hope you are enjoying your weekend! |
