My how things have changed!

Do not get me wrong, I still have my moments, like when I start eating M&M's and don't want to stop. But, most of the time my approach to food, especially sweets, is totally different than before WW. I really like to bake, but that leaves us with lots of leftovers. So I try to give some away to the neighbors and/or my parents. We hosted a meeting at our house, and I made cupcakes. I gave a lot of those away, but I had left over frosting. Yummy, homemade buttercream frosting. The other night I frosted a bunch of graham crackers and put them in the fridge. I had one too, for three points. Which I felt guilty about. Then I had another one last night. Now mind you, before I would have finished off half the plate before they ever made it to the fridge. So today we had a playdate over here. Everyone brought their own lunch, and as they were finishing I went in to get some animal cookies for the kids. Then I remembered the frosted graham crackers. I brought the plate out, and they were all gone in 15 minutes. And I wasn't even tempted to have one! Now, my three year old had two. But she hardly eats, so I am excited when she eats much of anything. And I am excited that food is no longer such an issue for me. Woo hoo!

  1. Followed your link throught the board from a WW thread. What some people fail to grasp is when you are in the right mindset, making the right choice is easy. I agree that I will look at something and decide which I would rather have. Because going outside my points is not an option.
    Just know that you bring hope to those of us that are still in the beginning of their journey. I'd love to see some pictures along the way. I didn't see any besides your main one.
