Thats my best Cookie Monster impersonation!

I have some leftover no bake oatmeal cookies in my deep freezer that are screaming my name!!

This afternoon I came in from my walk and I wanted one so badly.  But it was almost supper time and I told myself I could wait until I ate.  But then after supper I told myself I had just eaten so I could wait.  So just now myself said it was time for that cookie I was promised.  So I went and got a 100 calorie cupcake pack and a cup of applesauce.

So no splurge for me!  Funny how we can trick our brains into something to avoid a binge.  If I had opened that bag of cookies I would have not stopped with one.  So if tricking myself into thinking I can have one later will stop me from ruining my perfect day then I will keep it up!!  Just goes to show ya how much our brains play into bad choices and overeating.  So much more than our stomachs.  No wonder we have such terrible times staying on track.

So I am putting my cookie monster to bed for the night and maybe he wont show back up tomorrow.  It will be his last chance to come out as the cookies are leaving for good New Years Eve (they will be attending a party) and Cookie wont have anything around here to crave!

And just a quick report that the scales continue to go down.  That will make weigh in go alot better Wednesday and give me the strength to continue.  I am still above goal but I will be there soon! 

And even though he doesn’t read this I want to tell the best thing that ever happened to me how much I love him, today more than ever!  Happy Anniversay Sweetheart!!
