I want a cookie.
I WANT ICE CREAM... AND I WANT THE COOKIES.... and I am still sad to find that %^$#& demon still lurking inside my head. After over 3 years, I thought it was gone. Nope.
Just needed to vent. Back to your regularly scheduled programming...

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.
Can you eat just one cookie? That's probably what I would do but I can eat cookies in moderation. I'd have to stay away from the cheezits though and those pretzel/cracker things.

I opted to have some strawberries with Lite Cool Whip... and I made some SF black cherry jello "parfaits" with some layers of the jello mixed with some layers of jello and Cool Whip mixture to have for dessert tonight.
It can be hard to find a good therapist. Even being aware (professionally) of many of the area therapists who have good reputations and are active in the various counbsleing associations (sort fo some "inside" info, if you will), it is difficult to find a quality one that you "click" with and who has a theoretical approach that is compatible with my personality and views. I tried 3 others (and worked with one for almost a year despite a number of issues/confluct that should have had me finding a new one within the first couple of months of seeing her) before I found this one.

They aren't to bad, but you could make worse choices.
At least you have identified you work spots and know what to do when challenged. You help set the example of what others should do when faced with tough challenges. Keep up the awesome work.

Today my "skinny jeans" didn't fit. I'm only up four pounds from minimum, three pounds from when the jeans fit, but they don't fit.
All that eating out of boredom while home.
Durn it!
Bit of a revelation as to how much food I could pack away if I didn't have anything better to do. Those food demons refuse to be exorcised. We must, therefore, recognize them, and in so doing, remove some of their power.

March 9, 2011 - Coccygectomy!
I chased my dreams, and my dreams, they caught me!
My head demons haven't gone anywhere either but I find that when they start taunting me to eat a cookie...I eat a cookie. And when they figure out that what they wanted wasn't really a cookie they get pissed and go away
I think it might be because I eat protein cookies. I imagine that ticks them off as well.
And yes, deep down, it isn't really the COOKIE that I want, of course...
