OPTI AND SMARIES MISSHAP.....

i am on day 7/21 of opti.... the first 5 days were a breeze because i was at work most of the day and my husband has been taking care of the dinners at night but then it happened lol

 

i was sitting at my daughter dance class with my sons smarties in my hands (he wanted to put them on the seat which i think is kinda gross) next thing i new i had two smarties in my mouth CRAP!!! for a split second i thought "it's only two smarties what's the harm" but then i snapped out of it and spit those things out....

 

just shows you how hold habits creep up

 

 

mindless eating. I remember being on optifast, and going to lick the spoon of something i was baking, stopping myself in time.

This is still a problem for me.  I have to be very conscience of myself.  It's the damnedest habit to break!  :D

it's super hard to be conscious of yourself all the time and do the right thing. But the best skill to learn. Have you read "Mindless Eating" by Brian Wansink? Really good book.

Added to the reading list, this is a book for me!  Thank you for the hook up ;)

It happens to lots of people...glad u chose to spit it out. Your doing awesome you should feel very proud of yourself.

Way to go. It is so easy to eat something without realising the consequences

when I was on Opti I didn't even eat what I was allowed---we were at my daughters new house and they have a grape vine along a fence- I went over to see if the grapes were ripe or not and promptly popped 2 in my mouth...was about to pop the 3rd one in when it hit me OH CRAP what have I done!!!! I spit out the one in my mouth but had swallowed one--and here I had been doing so very well-----lol

I went to my hairdresser and after I paid I picked up a candy, unwrapped it and almost put that golden caramel goodness on my tongue... Almost
