Ah Lizabette......let me do just a couple bangs on the darn thing with the hammer?
I'm having the most enjoyable supplement right now and it is all in thanks to Nickie and Jo.
Nickie mentioned cocoa and dipping a bar into it, which I hadn't considered (I'm only a dipper when it comes to peanut butter toast in cocoa during one of my 'need comfort food' binges) and not long after Nickie mentioned dipping, then Jo mentioned she loves to have a cuppa tea along with a bar. Hmmmmm
So right now, I'm enjoying a lovely hot cuppa tea (I've been cold all day) along with a chocolate bar. Yesterday I had a peanut butter bar along with my tea and I was ashamed of myself
when I ate about 1/4 of it in my first huge bite (have I learnt any self control in the last 7 weeks?? obviously not). So, today I cut the bar up into 7 slices and then halved each of those so I have 14 pieces to enjoy with my tea.
Lest you think I am getting smart/wise, which would lead to becoming dignified around food....let me tell you that I scooped up every chocolate crumb off of the cutting board (those chocolate bars are crumbly when you cut them) and I licked those bits off of my hand.
I wasn't going to miss out on a smidgen of that darn bar.
--- I did become ashamed of my actions (I don't want to be a slave to my appetite or to food any longer) so I tossed the rest of the crumbs (okay so there were only about 3 or 4 microscopic pieces left.........) into the sink.
I'm telling you.........this getting control over my food thoughts---it isn't so easy and it sure isn't automatic.
Okay, while I'm typing my tea is getting cold and I've still got 8 (YES 8!!!) pieces of my bar left to savor.
I might just need another cuppa tea!
Hope it has been a great and compliant day for everyone......it has for me (other than I'm darn cold----but I might have already mentioned that.........
).
