FrostyLA's Journal, 17 Jul 10

I'm on day 5 now, and all is going pretty well. I've had to train my brain into a different thinking. We have a fruit bowl on the table and many times while I'm sitting there, doing nothing or just chatting, I find myself mindlessly reaching for the food. When I prepare meals (which isn't very often because I have a wonderful person who cooks yummy food for me!), I find myself wanting to throw the last morsel of whatever I'm chopping into my mouth. Even though the fruit isn't bad for you, and better than reaching for chips or cookies, it's still the fact that I'm eating without even thinking about whether I'm hungry. It's just there.

I'm going to a party in a couple hours, and I'm struggling with what to do:
1) Eat before I go. This way I won't necessarily be hungry, but as I've said before, that's still a struggle for me. I'm going to want to eat anyway, and do I want to spend the entire party thinking about not eating.
2) Don't eat before I go, to leave room to eat what's there and then be choosy.

I think I'm going with number 2. I think about food way too much, and if I try to deprive myself and say I'm not going to eat, I don't think I'm going to enjoy myself. Plus, I had a very YUMMY breakfast pita and just finished my first workout, and I can honestly say I'm not hungry. It's a long drive and I still have to get ready, so I think I'll pack a Fiber One bar and some water for the road so I'm not starving.

I'll let you know how it goes :-)
