Other good choices

More things I did right this weekend:

  • I stopped eating when I got full at dinner Sat. night, even after viewing the dessert menu (which included a truly intriguing almond ice cream).
  • I refrained from buying anything sweet at the store on the way home, also.
  • I had just one goodie while at the pumpkin patch store: I was sorely tempted to get a caramel apple to go and I didn't. (OK, I am obsessing a bit over recreating that in the future, but whatever...)
  • I didn't order anything to eat at trivia last night, despite it all smelling really yummy, because I just wasn't hungry (that may have had something to do with my pumpkin patch treat not agreeing with me: I really need to think harder about getting tested for food allergies!)
  • I was super hungry even after dinner later, but all I had for dessert was pretzels.
  • I worked out this morning and had a hard-boiled egg for breakfast.

So we'll see what giving myself pats on the back instead kicks in the ass will net me for motivation and self esteem...

PS: "The Quibblers" ranked second at trivia last night on our maiden trip as a team. I was a heavy hitter for the team, I'm proud to say.

Sounds like you are getting on the right track. Good for you. And congrats on the trivia. I like that you are looking at each day in the positive. The more positive things you see the more you will want to keep it up. Good luck!

Love the new slide show. Ethan's legos look as wacky and inventive as Ben's. Do you get a long explanation of what they do. Ben always has some really amzing contraptions.
