The Brownie Diet

Could there not be a brownie diet?  I mean, seriously!  Well, I guess if you ate Fiber One brownies all day long.... Would that count?  They are only 90 calories each.  But they are not ooey and gooey.  And any Fiber One product comes with consequences.  Lol

It is 11:00 pm and I have been warding off brownies for at least 3 hours.  I found a box in the bottom cabinet that I had purchased at some point.  I already made a vow to God that wouldn't touch a single one of what I binged on last night.  So then I figured eating brownies instead probably wouldn't work.  Oh please come TOM!  I'm waiting for you and need you to get here before I gain all my pounds back!!!

Today wasn't great.  I am very proud to say that I actually tracked and tried very hard to stay accountable between nothing going as planned and craving brownies.

First mistake was staying up until 1:00 am yesterday/today/whenever you would say!  I stayed up just doing basically nothing.  So then this morning, I didn't get up until 8:20.  However, I was technically awake because my son got up at 7:00 for the first time ever (of course on the day I want to sleep), came to my bed, and he lay there wide awake, tossing, turning, and trying to talk to me.  :::sigh:::

My youngest daughter had 2 friends coming over for their first time today.  When someone sees my house for the first time ever, I like to give the impression that we are neat and clean.  LOL  So I cleaned some things last night, and then I had plans to get up early and clean this morning.  Nope.  Instead, I started cleaning around 9:30 am.  The kids were a big help in this area.  We ended up completing all of our school lessons.  Lunch didn't happen until 1:45 pm, and I hadn't taken time to pack a lunch last night since I was being lazy on the computer after grocery shopping!  I finally got in the shower at 2:15, and thankfully the other mom called at nearly 3:00 to say she was running late.  I just love tardy people. Ha!

I think I had 2 fruit/veggie servings all day.  Wow. I did manage to force in my water.  Anyway, here it goes. :)

Breakfast was 1 hb egg, a WW muffin, and a banana.

6 points+.

Lunch was supposed to be something totally different, but instead I ran out of time and had to go with no mess, fast, easy cleanup.  This California Kitchen pizza was 9 points+ for 1/3 of the pizza.  I had that plus another smaller piece.  I had zero time for making a salad and didn't feel up to an apple.  Everything else would've been time consuming to deal with. 

12 points+.

After the play date, we all wanted a snack.  I had one of these that I picked up b1g1 free at Publix last night.  I really enjoyed it!  It at least made me FEEL like I was being a bad girl.

3 points+.

Supper tonight was a Healthy Life bun with 14 grams of RF mayo, ketchup, mustard, pickles, lettuce, a slice of Colby Jack, and a low fat burger patty.  I had 1/2 cup baked beans that I doctored up with turkey bacon and brown sugar.  I also had a mini ear of corn with FF spray butter and salt. 

15 points+.

In a nutshell:  Today was at least controlled.  I guess I need to head to bed very shortly before I end up having a really bad night.  I hate, hate, hate feeling like this with food!!!  I wish so much that I was one of those people who had no trouble whatsoever putting the fork down when I got full, pushing my plate aside, not dreaming of sugar plums.  :::sigh:::  But I'm not one of those people, so I will go to bed tonight dreaming about brownies.  And I will probably go to bed like this for a full week before it passes.  ARGH!  Have a great weekend, everyone!
