I made a heroic effort to be good today, and had massive cravings this evening. Thought I was being good by just making myself some mashed parsnips (yes, I love them)...and barely put on any salt, smart balance, or sugar.
Then, on a whim, I got online and checked the glycemic index for parsnips. OMGosh!! Way, way up there. Note to self: eat protein when eating parsnips!
(OK, I'm hoping that at least parsnips were better than the whole plate of brownies I wanted to make and eat.)

I had a bad evening. Something to do with this miserable cold and low self-discipline. Someone musta told me to feed a cold...

I had a bad day, too. Started out well. . took a spinning class and ate sensibly all day. But after dinner I started my cravings, so I ate a cup of strawberries and a whole aerosol can of whipped cream. I keep sabotaging myself, and it's disgusting!

Late afternoon is my weak time of the day. It's amazing how much I can stuff in my face if I come home hungry and dinner is an hour or 2 away! Choices, choices, choices.......
Weighed in this morning- 175.5 Yippie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Down 1.4 pounds from Monday.
Going to Boston tonight for a basketball game, so this will be a good test of willpower. (Go Celtics!)

My cat eats whipped cream. She's really skinny.
She's really old too, but she kept me awake half the night last night. We're putting in wood floors and she can't freely roam when the glue is drying. She was not a happy cat about the doors being closed.
No workout for me this AM. I'd like to just go back to bed.
