So, last weeks workouts were cut short with the arrival of Taylor. I'm back in the saddle again this week. I'll be working out in about 20 minutes. I love working out in the evening. It really takes the pressure off of my morning routine. This week, I want to be more focused with my eating. One of the tips I read on SparkPeople was that if you struggle with wanting sweet treats you can have one 300 calorie snack during the day. I'm going to try that out this week and see how it goes. I probably won't have one every day, but I will keep it as an option. It's going to be a little hard not to over eat with all the stress that's building up over David's job, but I know I can resist.

Yeah, seems like that would work. I think I would probably binge though...let us know how it works for you!

I tell you what helps me.. I keep a bar of really dark chocolate 60 or 70% cocoa and when I start craving sweets I eat a piece of it. The 70% only has 50 calories per square and it actually satisfies my craving. Either that or if it's really bad I eat a little cereal.

I tried the cereal thing last week. For whatever reason cereal and milk make my stomache hurt really bad. Milk in any other situation is okay, but the combination is a bust for me. I'll try the dark chocolate. I happen to have some in fridge. :)
