Here is the list of what they brought:
Vanilla Ice Cream
Hot Fudge
Carmel Sauce
Oreos
Reeese's Peices
Pineapple
Sprinkles
Gummy Bears
Whipped Cream
Maraschino Cherries
You do know that you I love sweets, right? Then they offered to leave all this stuff at the house. I convinced them to take it all except for the oreos and gummy bears because Hudson liked them and would eat them. The next day I found the bag of Reese's (my favorite candy) still here. Darn it! I am still being haunted by these goodies. I have indulged in Oreos more than once and last night when I got up to feed the baby..the Oreos were staring at me. I decided to just take a picture of them and write a post about it.
So, this post is not to be mean to my friend. I love her and she is one of my dearest in TN, however this was lots of temptation for me. I appreciate her thoughtfulness and all of the hard work that she put into making the goodies. Have I mentioned that the brownies I tried, were delicious? I did put the bread and cookies in the freezer and haven't tried them. Saving for a special occasion. I should of just avoided the temptation or had a very small serving of ice cream. I always say that it is portion control. My problem is that when something is around, I sometimes don't know how to stop.
Since I am now trying very hard to meet a specific goal in a specific time I am calling all friends and family members to try and do their best to support my goals. Not blaming our friends or calling it a sabotage, they were just being nice. However, if you are coming over anytime soon....please leave your yummy goodies at home.
That's always hard! I totally know where you're coming from---
ReplyDeleteAs for those reeces, those are actually a great treat when you need a litle bit of sweet! I think 10 pieces only have 1 point, and it feels like you're eating so many!! Just a thought....
Sounds like you did really well though. LOVE the idea of taking a picture & writing a blog instead of eating them. Serious control there, my friend!! ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard at work when someone orders pizza unexpectedly or a doc sends over a cheesecake, but I agree with Rachel- practice makes progress and I think you should practice more on forcing yourself to count out the treats and incorporate it into your points. If you are at all like I am it only makes you think in your mind that "once I reach my goal I can eat Reese's", but I think that only leads to binging. After all, the beauty of WW are the healthy habits that don't "end" like some fad diets. Love you! You can do it- Saturday, baby!
