Oh wow - carbs do count

I've been off a few days for Mardi Gras.  Not a vacation really, just spending time chasing my toddler while trying to get things done.  This tends to make me want to eat for reward.

My reward?  Blue Bunny, Sugar-Free, Bunny Tracks with a Girl Scout thin mint.  Does that sound nice?  Yeah, multiply it by 7 servings!  That's how many I had yesterday.

Funny, why can't I have one day where I eat 1500 calories???  I keep hitting 1800-2000.  Plus, today I'm up a few pounds and I'm pretty sure it's all the ice cream and the salt in several of the meals I ate yesterday.

Dear Lord, I BEG YOU, please help me find a way to not eat for comfort!  PLEASE!

Steph, a few of my posts yesterday were about this. Linda Spangle has an excellent book about emotional eating. It's Life is Hard; Food is Easy. I highly recommend it.


What's the ice cream doing in your house? Don't buy any more of it, and get any bingeables out of the house. You can do this, but not if you keep sabotaging yourself.
