WHAT A DAY! All I want is a big fat bowl of ice cream. Koen was up about once an hour from midnight on last night, so I did cheat a little this morning and had a Frappucino,but I did good and ordered it tall & skinny. The rest of the day wasn't so bad, and then this afternoon I had to run an errand and both boys screamed the whole time..it was so stressful. I had to listen to them for a good 45 minutes no matter what I did to try and make them happy. I've always turned to food in times of stress and I want ice cream now more than ever. I am not going to have any, but boy do I want it! I am determined to keep losing weight (I am quite pleased with the numbers so far, official weigh in Sunday a.m.!). I need to find other ways to satisfy myself when I have these cravings. Tonight-chocolate teddy grahams. Not the best for me, but I was low on calories for the day anyway and they're better than the 190 calorie per half cup ice cream that is left in the freezer from pre-diet. *sigh* This isn't easy, but I want to do everything I can do be a healthier person for me and for my kids.

Rachel,
ReplyDeleteTry the Bryer's Smooth & Dreamy (I think..) it's 1/2 the fat and 1/3 less calories! So for 1/2 cup it is like 110 calories I think? I got chocolate velvet one and it was soo good!
Or the weight watchers or Smart Ones desserts, they are delish too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Katelynn! I think I'm gonna just get some of the little individual cups of Blue Bell vanilla (my favorite) so that it's easy to restrict myself to just one serving. Then I'll only have them on days I've otherwise been extra good :)
