Well I made it through last night. It was not as hard as I thought. I kept busy and when I had a craving. I either went and talked with Jodi ( a gal pal at work ) or I thought about my Monday weigh in. I am craving some major foods but I do not have any of them in the house so thats a relief. By venting my first day, I let off allot of steam and I feel allot calmer. This is not easy and I have to some times drill it into my head to behave. On the car ride home, I kept telling my self over and over again that I would not eat before I went to sleep. I have a really bad habit of coming home starved and pigging out before bed. I made a point of spacing my snacks last night. I kept my bag of cherries on my desk (all 6 ounces of them) and when ever I felt the urge to eat wrong, I ate a couple. It really helped keep my cravings at bay. I also ate my soup at 4 am so I would not be starved when I got home around 7 am. I am really proud about how well I did last night. I am only up to 190 on my calories today but I have only been awake a couple hours. I am trying to save some extra calories for tonight. I am off tomorrow so I will be able to exercise (I hope).
Its time to take the hubby for new jeans lol. His are all way too big. I wish I had that problem. I am still happy for him. He's worked hard to drop 45 pounds. It helps that he has to weight out his food too. Last time when I was dieting, he would always bring home ice cream. And we all know how hard it is when ice cream is calling your name. If I am good this weekend, maybe I will splurge on a small cone next week. The kids might like going out for ice cream and a small cone is only about 200 calories. Anyway, I am off to gab with the hubbie.
