cinnamon rolls are calling to me!!

Day four on plan and still going well. OVer here, in China, they don’t do Easter so there is no problem with food and all that included with Easter. But one of the problems I DO have is my cooking. I got an oven a few months ago and DH is always requesting I cook this or that so on Sunday I try to cook something special for th ekids. Today was homemade cinnamon rolls. I am proud of myself in that I did not nibble, snack or taste a thing. That is such am improvement from before. But every time I have to go int he kitchen, they are calling to me to nibble. I know the smell is much better then the taste, especially since they are cold now but it still talks to me. Not too loudly at this moment but I decided to come on here and blog a bit to get the thought out of my head. I also went out to buy some ice cream for the kids. I keep all kinds of popsicles for the kid so have to keep out of that also. Helps that I know DH will be asking if I had a pop day today so keeping that in my mind. Plus, I like that my clothes are fitting better.

Just got to figure out how to cut that binge switch off.

    can you buy yourself some sugarfree popcicles or something so you are not completely denying yourself? I know when I was still re training my body to realize it no longer needed to “bingeor or “graze”, I had to keep lo cal snacks all over the place—popcicles, lo cal icecream pops, sugarfree pudding, ff cottage cheese, string cheese, smart pop. You name it, if it was lo cal I had it cause it was better to have it on hand in a “crisis” (lol) than splurgingon the REAL thing, ya know? Then one day, I just didnt need it anymore. I still have things I want, I just acct for them in my cals and skimp somewhere else. We really can have our cake, or cinnamon rolls ;) and eat it too, we just have to take off cals somewhere else or exercise more—balance . Have a great day !
