So, I tried the Biggest Loser trick and chewed Extra gum everytime I was hungry today. It worked pretty well. I have three different flavors in my purse so I have a nice selection to meet whatever the current need is. Now, unfortunately, they do not make chocolate gum yet... I wonder why not? Would that be disgusting? So, tonight is my rest night. I told my husband I feel kinda guilty about taking a rest night when I did such a bad job yesterday... It is so durn cold right now I just want to sit under a blanket and drink my hot tea.

Tomorrow will be a challenging day. I have a lunch meeting planned at a buffet. You have to have these things at buffets so that people can just eat and chat, and not have to wait for food, but it means that I have to show great restraint... or run 6 miles tomorrow night. It will be a good time, but yipes! I have to be careful.

Today was a better day, so that did help with my issues with emotional eating. Conscious eating... I have to remain focused on what goes in my mouth. You guys popping in on me keep me straight! You never know who might be reading!!!
