Slow and Steady wins

It feels like a lot of things have happened since my last post.  I quit my job.  I started having a crush on a boy. (I haven’t had a serious infatuation since last summer.)    I started a new university program.  I finally got my house under control and have a system of housekeeping.  And.  I lost 1 more pound.  Yes, just one.  These days are rough.

There are good times, and bad.  Let me tell you that I was acutely aware of resisting a food temptation today.  (sorry for the re-route here, but…  oh em gee. I am speaking about food and now wishing for anything delectable to put in my mouth)  … Back to my craving.  Today was sardine-packed with activity.  We had a family event to scurry off to.  It was after church, but before my Little Sister’s 8th bday.  My lunch was generally quite health-filled.  Tuna with light “calorie-wise” mayo.  Sautéed  asparagus.  And artichoke hearts.

But when I was full, after a balanced meal. I wanted sugar, sweets, carbs,,,, bad stuff.  But I thought to myself.  Now Sally, just wait twenty minutes and this silly craving will be over.

It worked
