This is going to sound weird and stupid

This is going to sound so weird. It's strange that mindset and logic sometimes run parallel instead of intersecting.

Today I decided to have pizza for lunch. I tracked it this morning while eating breakfast. 2 slices of pizza approximately 900 calories. It looks like a lot of calories right? But I wrote it down and accommodated my calorie budget accordingly.

Then I decided to bring some melon and strawberries. I wanted make sure I was satisfied so this was a treat that didn't turn into a binge. I also wanted to get some plant based food.

I looked at all those calories and thought: Should I just have one slice?

Then: I wrote down two! I'm allowed to have two! That's MY pizza. Look I can prove it I wrote it down!

OK, then the light bulb moment. I could order one slice and eat it and then decide!

Look, I know this isn't rocket science. I also know that I would have ordered both slices and having ordered them I'd have eaten them. I can't explain why I'm so proud of myself for leaving myself the option, but I am.

I'm posting this here because, who else could I tell? I warned You I would be weird!
