You know what else I like?

Today I was reminded on another board of something I used to do--try to focus on eating less. Only, there's no definition of what "less" is--and as soon as I would start trying to eat "less," it would catch up to me that I felt deprived & then I would eat MORE! Now I don't have to figure out what less is--I can just think, "did I eat my meal, or didn't I?" Did I have my plate full? Well, then I know I'm not deprived. That little voice inside never has time to garner forces against me--it no longer has ammunition, because I know I ate, and I know it was enough, it was satisfying, it was good.
I even went without dessert at 2 public functions this week! That's a first for me! But I really didn't feel deprived--hey, my day is coming and I'll enjoy it then--and I don't need to eat every dessert that passes in front of my face. I used to.
