Two years ago I was 196 lbs. I had a crap diet and I could just see myself getting out of control. 10 lbs this year and 10lbs the next. I have worked hard to lose the weight and it has been a slow and steady decline to 158 lbs. I changed what I eat and how much I eat. I have worked on good healthy habits.
Yesterday I stopped at the store on my way home because I was craving something sweet. A trick that I learned was to give in to the craving and buy just one item from the bakery (I limit this to once every 2-3 weeks and only if I have been losing). My bakery has single individual items. They are more expensive, but I don't have the temptation of the entire batch of sweets in my house when I buy an individual item. I bought a caramel brownie and at the checkout, I was speaking with the person in front of me and I said I was splurging on my calories. She said, "That is good for you because you can afford it." I have not heard that since high school. It felt good to hear because this past week I have felt fat. I know I have lost and I have shrunk two pants sizes, but I still feel fat.
I also ate tilapia and green beans for dinner and had my one single brownie for dessert (I typically don't have dessert but I was splurging on my calories).
