Easter is coming soon and I'm worried about all these goodies that are going to be around.

I shouldn't be because I know that on IE I can eat whatever I want.

However, I have been off all treats for lent. So I have had anything sweet for about 5 weeks now. I'm worried that the temptation will be there to eat when I'm not hungry.

I'm trying to devise a plan that will help me through.

I think however, the only way to tackle it is allow myself what I want when I'm hungry. That's all I can do. I need to trust myself to be responsible....

I was so engrossed in what I was reading I ignored some hunger signals!

It could have been a nightmare.

However, I got some carrot and corriander soup which was so lovely and filling! There is a little bit left in the cup but I don't need it or want it.

Hunger level - 5

This morning I got up and wasn't very hungry. So I got some chores done etc and then thought hmmm I might feel a little hungry. I drank a glass of water just to see if it was thirst first...but no I'm sure it was hunger. So, I prepared some grapes, started to eat them and then just didn't feel hungry anymore! So I put them in a tub for later.

This is real progress for me because I would have just eaten them anyway while on a "diet" because they would have been on the "allowed" list.

I really think I am slowly...

Changing my settings back.... I think my nosy coworker has lost interest --- and if she reads something enlightening for her, then so be it.

Miss my blogging. Been away for quite a bit, but still been reading and posting to threads. Today marked another loss, bringing me to 34 lbs gone since Jan. 3rd.

My next mini goal is to be to 260 by Mother's Day. I am at 272 now and feel it is completely doable..... and maybe lose even more by then.

My family is heading on a mini vacation to the beach this weekend. I am so ready! All of my shorts are...

I forgot how dedicated you must be when lo carbing and how restricted your new way of eating becomes.

Scarifice, commitment, scarifice, reward!
