Frozen yogurt dilema


Quote  |  Reply

So I just ate about two cups of Oreo cookie frozen yogurt and am beating myself up about it.  I didn't eat a lot at all today so I thought I would treat myself to  some fro yo to get my calories above 1200.  I know that I needed to be above 1200 but man oh man I am kicking myself for eating frozen yogurt!!!  Please tell me I'm crazy and that I should not be stressing over some Ice Cream!!!

You were already under. Did it taste good? Did it make you happy in that moment? Then enjoy your treat and let it go! Besides, look on the bright side: you had something delicious, and got some calcium in too. Can't beat that!

Ashley, seriously, don't worry about it!

I do the same thing all the time, only for you it was ok, b/c I always inculge even when I have no calories left.

But lately I have been training myself to be positive, and it has actually helped me stick to my diet.

Allow yourself a treat or two a day. Sure, don't overindulge, but give in to something you REALLY Want. Follow my next words precisely: DO NOT STRESS OVER IT!!!!!! REPEAT: DO NOT STRESS OVER YOUR TREAT!!!! When you eat soemthing you love, ENJOY IT! Take time to savor and really enjoy every bite you take, and remind yourself that it is healthy to LIKE food. It's how we are programmed.

The more you take time to savor and enjoy something, believe it or not, the less you will eat. It has worked for me.
