Moving Forward

Hello all,  I haven't been as "behaved" as I wanted be I was sabotaged by my 16 year old. He bought and teased me with one of my favorite junky treats. Those puffy coconut and marshmallow covered cream filled choc cakey things. I haven't had a real one in over 14 years as our location didn't sell Hostess products, our local quick mart now carries them, and our house has had all these tempting little cakes and treats in it ever sense, thanks to the boys and their enabling grandmother. At first I said no...stuck to my guns and refused their pink goodness, ate my planned snack of sugar free fat free chocolate pudding and a banana, while it was enjoyable it didn't quite satisfy, by this point I was alone and started the graze...maybe a rice cake would help...no, ok how about a reduced fat cheese stick ...no, a bowl of cereal ...no I finally shut myself off and went to bed...calling it a binge ...on healthy stuff no less.  Then the same thing happened on Friday night, another healthy binge.  So Saturday I decided if I was in control all day then I would reward myself with one snowball...and i must also enjoy it, track it, and be in control ...in other words no eating it fast and then lose all control and scarf the other down too. I'm proud to report, i stayed true. I cut the first out of the package in half and gave it to teenage eating machines. I then poured myself a glass of milk, put the fluffy pink ball of calories on a pretty china dessert plate and made it an experience. I sat down and nibbled away...for 38 minutes. I totally enjoyed it, and its out of my system along with the binging....I have been in control for count them...3 DAYS !!  I know its only 3 little days but in my world its a big number, as its been so long since I've made for more than one. I spent the day crafting away yesterday I made a beautiful Bride to be snowgal and the makings (hats, scarves and accessories) for 3 more which I will be making today...I plan to have them all uploaded on Kraftygirl Kreations by the end of today for sale. Oh the Teriyake Turkey Meatballs were super yummy ...will post the recipe in a bit. Well its off to get a healthy breakfast and then get in the craft room and "kraft" away the day. Talk soon :)
