Learning to not love food

It is not called a journey for no reason. I love food. I love good food and I could eat all day. This is dangerous. So on my journey I am learning not to focus on food. Living in another country, in Asia, where western food is scarce its hard to be on this journey with weight watchers. It wouldn't be so hard if I liked fish but I don't. And where I live there are bakeries abound with fattening and high caloried delights.

Several things I have to change within myself:

using food to eleviate a bad day

using food to celebrate nothing, making excuses to celebrate binge.

thinking about food all the time

and mindless eating.

So lately I have gotten into online shopping and having received the shipments I am filled with joy. I live in the part of the world where they are not my size and it is impossible to get clothes my size.; So I tried out Lands end. The shipping is cheap and the clothes are fabulous. Their website is comprehensive and they have a chat option in case you want help with sizing. I will buy from them again.

But my latest purchase is an influx of puddings. I can't b elieve how many sugar free fat free instant options there are. So i bought a few of the traditionals like butterscotch, vanilla and chocolate but also added some different ones in white chocolate, chocolate fudge, banana cream and pistacio. So far I ahve tried the white chocolate. I was skeptical about this but it really does taste like white chocolate. The best part about it is that one serving is only 1 ww point. So now I have some treats to keep me away from those evil, seductive bakeries that are everywhere here.

I feel great about my progress this week and can't wait to see the results on friday.

My reward for reaching my first goal is a burger and fries at tgif and then chocolate mousse cake.

Hope you are well where ever you are. God bless.
