Vows du Jour
Well, there is a soup of the day in many restaurants, and I will now have vows of the day. I am trying to change them up every day so that I don't overreach and commit to doing something that's not realistic.
Yesterday, I got really hungry and snacked on cottage cheese with Trader Joe's marinara while I was cooking dinner. I have been doing so well keeping to my calorie goals, and the hunger was starting to build up. Unfortnuately, I didn't even measure the cc and TJ's, so I don't know exactly how many extra calories I consumed. It probably didn't help that I had a glass of wine with a co-worker after work, which no doubt lowered my resistance to the dreamy, creamy combination... if you've never had cottage cheese with TJ's marinara, you must try it! I hadn't made any specific vows re: not eating while cooking dinner, so I ate. Then it occurred to me that I'd better make specific vows today, to avoid such problems.
Vows du Jour: Wednesday, October 5, 2005:
No eating between meals
No wine while making dinner
Make time to meditate (didn't do that yesterday either -- big ooops!)
No more looking at Cats In Sinks! It became a bit too transfixing for comfort yesterday.
There. I've made choices. I have to power to live by them. While eating between meals or looking at Cats In Sinks are neither morally wrong nor that big a deal most of the time, I do not want to be a slave to my passions, unable to stop clicking that "Show me another cat in a sink!" button. I want to go hardcore CR... I can't be chowing in uncontrolled fashion, even if I'm chowing on very good, almost Zoned foods.
Hahaha... now you too are addicted to Cats In Sinks!
