I was in the mood for a blueberry muffin. So I stopped at a chain donut shop for their low fat blueberry muffin thinking it would cost me 8ish WW points... Whoa!!! I came home to find out that it will cost me 11 points due to 75 carbs per... How is this possible? I only get 33 points a day.
I need to put this in perspective though. I started this diet saying I wasn't going to deprive myself; that I was going to eat smarter and healthier. BUT!!!, that I was going to be realistic about treats as well. I need to acknowledge that I eat them and put them into my plan. In the past, I would be super strict, cheat with something and then go overboard and never count the calories. Duh! I know it sounds insane, but it is true. But, I want to be the true, authentic self our Lord wants me to be, so I need to tell the truth- document exactly what I am putting in my mouth. I had a great priest tell me once, "Tell the truth about yourself!!!"
I am grateful, again Lord, for the help you have been giving me. Even at 2 and a half weeks, I feel things are different this time. All for your glory!
Omnium in Bonum,
Denise
