Low Carb Diva

October 25, 2011 - Day 6

I can't believe it is almost Halloween. Last year I bought candy under the guise that I would hand it out to the kids but really I just hoped we wouldn't get many trick or treaters so I could eat the leftovers!

This year I will not be buying or giving out candy. Yes I know I am a Halloween grinch. Too bad. The fall through Christmas is one of the hardest times of the year for me with regards to eating and I will not do anything to tempt myself. I guess I could buy candy I don't like but I don't wanna! So there.

Besides with business being so slow for this time of the year I really don't need any sweets around otherwise I may be tempted to do some emotional eating.

OK temper tantrum over!

If you decide to eat some junk this Halloween just remember to get back on track the next meal or the next day. Don't let it turn into a full on pig out fest from now until New Years.

BTW this is the thinest I have been in 15 years. Unfortunately looking in a full length mirror is not pretty. My fat hangs and jiggles. But I will keep on going because I have seen some improvement and know every 10 pounds will bring about even more dramatic changes.
