it just takes a little brain power...

that's what i'm finding these days. that sometimes when i'm trying to eat right, i need to get my head in the game (as much as the rest of my body usually is). this weekend, whoo boy. it was fun. it was indulgent. and i lost weight! how?? well, let me tell you. notice the head coming into play...

Friday -- Ate well, but had a muffin at work that was certainly a lot of calories. No worries, counted it as my lunch and went for a power walk instead of getting something to eat at noon. Dinner, went out with the company, ate until I was full, it was good.

Saturday -- Had a power bar and went to the gym. Has an AWESOME run. Wasn't hungry until 3 -- had a light lunch. Went to a dinner for a wedding anniversary -- ate one of a couple of yummy appetizers and had a couple drinks. Didn't eat my salad or salmon for dinner, since wasn't hungry. Did have a piece of cake and some fondue (ok, drunk head).

Sunday -- Had a piece of reduced fat coffee cake at 11:00 b/c I was hungry. Went to the beach any played volleyball all day. Got home at 5:45 and was hungry. Had a salad, couple hours later I was hungry again and the boyfriend and I went to ice cream.

Monday -- Lost a pound!

It was great, just eating when I was hungry, not eating too much, just using my damn head! Why can't I do that always????
