Today’s Weight: 166.0
Loss/Gain: + 2.0
Honestly, the only real negative about this gain is having to post it today. TOM has arrived, so I’m not surprised at all. It happens.
As I told one of my children who got in trouble this week, “This [situation] doesn’t make you a bad person. You’re a good kid who let [it] get the better of you. You learn from the mistake and move on.”
Although, I’m not even considering this a mistake. Yesterday I explained how my week was going and I’m really okay with that. This is a lifelong journey and I know the scale will go back down soon enough.
Besides, I’m quite proud of a choice I made this morning…
On a quick trip to the grocery store this morning I saw this new Easter goodie out:
6 oz. of Reese’s Peanut Butter Egg. It’s huge.
My TOM’y self said, “OH!!! That looks delicious!!”. But my new ending self said, “You don’t need that much. It really is too big.” and I grabbed a regular sized pack of peanut butter cups instead … just in case I really get the craving for some. It’s already tucked away in a drawer for later.
Don’t judge..I know myself and I’d rather have the one regular pack during this time than sound all self righteous that I skipped it, and end up eating other chocolate today wishing I had just bought the darned candy.
Thanks for checking in folks! I do have a sweet NSV to share with you and maybe I’ll get around to posting it later today.
In the meantime… TGIF!
My New Ending 
I love that you know that you may want something and have planned for it in a positive way.
Have a great Friday!

I saw that egg as well. PB mini cups are my complete downfall and I binge on them every time I am around them. My mother asked me what I thought about buying one of those big eggs to have for easter dinner and slicing it up. I told her that she needs to be prepared to throw the rest out if no one eats it. I thought she was going to have a heart attack LOL!

There are so many HUGE Easter/Valentines/Christmas confections around that it is absolutely crazy. I used to really like the peanut butter cups but now they aren't my favorite. I do have other favorites though!
