Just a Sliver...
Well, I did it - I cheated. I had NO intention of eating anything but my own food today, but what should it be at work when I show up? Pot-Luck - for a birthday. And I was actually pretty good, but I was also REALLY BAD. For starters, I didn't even bother to look at the food that wasn't green. I pulled out my salad, dumped lemon juice on it and then headed over to pick a few pieces of broccoli out of the broccoli salad to dump on top of it. Then I got a small spoonfull of cabbage (covered in cole slaw dressing of course) and dumped that on my salad. Then I shook it all together and ate it. I decided to forego my planned entree of chicken soup and had some brisket instead. I decided I can have my soup for dinner instead of cooking tonight. I got out of there without the chicken salad, the croissants and all the other yummy looking things that I shouldn't be eating. I decided to head back to my office but I did tell my mom - when you cut that cheese cake, I want just a sliver. In my mind I was picturing about 2 bites. What she brought back to me was more like 10 bites. And as I was licking my spoon I said to her, I probably just undid EVERYTHING that I have worked so hard for this week. And you know what? It as WORTH IT! And if you don't think any cheesecake could be that good, you haven't been to Bella Cibo.

Too funny. I think its ok to reward yourself everynow and then, just as long as it doesnt keep happening and get you side tracked. I do it from time to time and am still loosing weight.
Hope all is well with you guys. we think about you often.
Love and Prayers,
Tim
