Wed, Jan 11
Today I:
1) I motivated myself by reading:
 - My Advantages Deck
 - My Response Cards

3) I ate everything slowly, while sitting down & enjoying every bite
4) I gave myself credit throughout the day for every positive eating behavior
5) I got moving by doing:

- Planned exercise: 75 min yoga
6)
         
- I calmed down before I ate

8)

9)
- I got back on track
10) I contacted my Diet Buddy

So, not great today - a co-worker made chocolate cake for my birthday & brought it in today.  It was delicious!!  I did great with only have 1 slice (would have fit in my plan fine), but then in the afternoon didn't resist a second piece.  And then, after a late dinner, I had half of the (large) piece that was given to me to take home for my husband.  I didn't use any Resistance Techniques at all - I need to get back in the habit of doing those!

The good thing that I did today was that I didn't buy anything extra - so except for the cake, I followed my plan.  Even just something as simple as that has been a challenge, so that was an accomplishment.  Tomorrow I'll review the resistance techniques I can use and practice them every time I want something that's not on my plan.
