@Krystal, being aware is definitely one of the first steps.

@my kashi diet, i have and can you believe that sometimes when i’m in that carb craving place i’ll eat like 2 at once? that’s probably somehow still better than a dunkin donuts bagel.

@Diane Fit to the Finish, If there is one thing I am good at it’s analyzing!

This post is dead on. I made the “mistake” last week of taking leftover rice (WHITE RICE) to work for lunch the next day…Yeah, I ended up with almost 1900 calories for the day. (My target is around 1400)….so I learned real quick I can’t do that. I just…can’t. Thanks for the thought provoking post!

It’s all trial and error right? Or…in my case trial and crash and burn, and why did i try that? What was i thinking? LOL! I seriously laughed when i read your quote. Why not just willingly make a mistake. The good thing is at least you know your doing it rather than not even noticing that 5th Oreo popping in your mouth. I had no idea that 4 Oreos is 280 calories. Wow! The hubby told me as i went to reach for a 6th. That takes me over 30min on the bike to burn. So…not worth it…unless i know what I’m doing and actually enjoy every single one =) Why not. I figure it’s better than ignorance.

have you ever tried the mini bagels – might be a good way to control portion size but still indulge a bit…. and grab whole wheat ones, smother in almond butter a little honey – healthy and yummy

I think Diane hit the nail on the head. The fact that you are analyzing it shows that the mistakes are sinking in, and you will be less likely to make them again.
