Eat 4 Today: My committment

Today I will not eat between meals AND I will not eat late night snacks.

These late night snacks are be coming my downfall.d I was so proud of myself for losing the 37-39 pounds and getting my cholesterol down to an almost okay level. So I started to allow myself a before-bed snack.t These started out as 5-6 baked corn chips. Last night it was a medium piece of smoked salmon and a nice serving of seafood salad. Both healthy foods.

However, I’ve been seeing the scale creep up slowly, 1 lb, then 2 lb, today 3 lb. I also have stopped weighing myself each morning. A bad sign. My clothes still fit fine.u I’m still getting rid of clothes that are too big so I have not slipped to far….but I have slipped. No more eating a quarter of a bag of blue corn chips (is blue corn a white/light carb?I YES!) and telling myself that it’s okay because they’re baked and a serving (2 gm of fat) is 18 chips.

I am an adult and I don’t NEED food at night just before bed. A note on that:n I’ve noticed that I get “hungry” when I stop doing things at night, i.e stop blogging, emailing, photoshoping, etc. Then when my hands are still, I all of a sudden need food.1 That makes no sense. I’m not really hungry.s It’s the “keeping the hands busy so I don’t eat syndrome”.

So my committment to Eat 4 Today is to NOT eat after dinner. I’ll have my wine but no snacks to go with it.p Keep your fingers crossed for me. And KB, hope you get well soon.
