How come you will be having chocolate in your RM for weeks now Patricia...???
Were you inundated with chocolate gifts this year?
I know what you mean about having 3-4 carbs made up of 'little bits'.
I did this yesterday too because there was just SO much delicious things around. I had like 1/4 of a hot cross bun, a thin slice of baguette...that kind of thing at my RM. I just couldn't resist tasting these things but I won't make a habit of it.
I'm going to try to curtail my treats to just once a week really!
Well its been the first time in living memory when I didn't eat my body weight in chocolate on Easter Sunday.
I had a big ice-cream (Magnum; Almond)
& 3 individual chocolate sweets as part of my RM.
I've never felt more in control in my entire life. Ever!!!
I did probably over-carb but
its a vast improvement to be able to even identify the amount of
chocolate I had; whereas previously it would be a case of 'too much to mention'. It is like a whole new world now &
I'm so pleased.
I just wondered how do other people cope when they visit some people's houses and they provide things like tea and cakes & biscuits.
Or the people who kind of insist on you taking a sweet or mint from them.
You just say no thanks?
I still find those kind of situations hard really.
