My Thursday fast day was fine. Fast days are still easy. Start the day with hot chocolate protein drink, then green tea when I feel hungry. then around noon or 1PM I have a no cal salad.. just the greens and a small amount of dressing. That fills me up and I'm good to go until diner. I'm pretty busy at work so I typically don't think about food. Then when I get home I'm good with diner, I cook for the family. Last night was delicious salmon, easy to cook, no fuss.. along with noodles for the hubby and green beans . Easy . I had my fill of salmon. Watched Scandal..one of my favorite TV shows!!.. drank some Diet Green tea.. Should have been the end of it.. BUT NO WAY!!.. for some reason the brain said.. gotta have something else.. What else can you eat.?? What else can you eat?? Good planning for me.. I don't keep a lot of junk foods in the house. What little does come in.. my family has learned to hide from me.. which is great. outta sight , outta mind. But those darn Power Crunch bars are always there.. The are protein 12g, 10 carbs, but 200 calories. Not good to add on my low cal fasting days. But they are CHOCOLATE.. one of my weaknesses. So my brain says.. Okay.. you've been so good, have half and save the rest for later. I do that.. I get the taste in my mouth of the chocolate.. and Its all over.. Half becomes the whole thing. (brain.. you've been good.. this wont be bad). The whole then becomes a small bag of cheese gold fish. Salty always follows sweet. Then sweet must follow salty and a perfectly good day becomes a fail!!.. Then I am frustrated and angry with myself. The good news is.. God gives us a new day.. A day to start over and try to get it right. I am trying.. God knows I'm trying. Just gotta keep working on the evening brain thing. I'm going to try to join the 5:2 group. Those ladies post daily. check in with each other..Maybe that will help me, trying to be accountable to someone. When I get the urge to snack at night, i'll try to post. Just say no Brown!! Just say no!!..
