Day 211: Mourning with a bit of hope

Another post about food....

I am finding that I am not  perfect at eating super healthy during the day so I can eat "whatever" at night if something pops up (and yes, that is a possibility at my house). I realize that  is going to take a  lot of time and practice.

But  going from eating too much junk to eating super  healthy is a series of baby steps. Just like walking or being more productive or anything worth doing...

The baby step I seem to be doing well at is only indulging in one thing at a time.

I love grilled cheese sandwiches. In the past, I would eat one too many, with a ton of tater tots & a root beer  float. Why? I don't know...it is just a good combination. don't believe me? Try it!!! (I will  live vicariously through you....)

Now, the new me, has figured out that I can have the grilled cheese sandwich, but I need to have just one (and preferably a small sandwich) and I need to drop all the other fun with it - water & a salad and/or fruit is a much better (and healthier) way to round out that meal.

Do I miss the old way of eating? yes...but maybe in time I will appreciate (maybe even like) the new way. I know my body does...

Happy Walking!
