Tiny Victory

I had two tiny victories today.  First, today was the 2nd day in a row that I met my calorie goal!  This is huge for me, because I love to snack.  It's been excruciating not snacking all day at work, because Target  revolves around eating.  No joke, I squarely plant at least 10 of these extra pounds at the feet of the people who bring in treats every day, those who make waffles for Friday morning breakfast (even though they're delicious) and the candy aisle in the store that's conveniently down the block.  Let's hope I can keep this rolling.  My next baby step is to swap out some of my junkie snacks (aka the ranch wheat thins - 140 cals and mini PB cups - 44 cals) with healthier options.  Second, I have so far avoided Easter candy (for the most part).  Today one of my friends, who is very familiar with my sweet tooth having sat next to me for a year, joked about the  bad timing of my diet in regards to PB Easter eggs being in stores currently.  This whole time I've successfully blocked the image of these from my head!  I LOVE PB M&M's, but especially love the M&M eggs.  I'm really struggling now that the idea has been planted, but I think it will be a huge success if I can make it past this season without eating any.  Take note, Judy!

Tip for the day: Seasoning has zero calories and adds a kick of flavor to boring food.  I like Mrs. Dash seasoning to spice up my chicken.  You can also use real veggies such as peppers, onion, or garlic and get some veggie points for the day too!
