"VALENTINES DAY AND CHOCOLATES"

WELL TODAY IS VALENTINE'S DAY - AND THAT MEANS CHOCOLATES FOR SOME OF US! :) I HAD SOME LAST EVENING AND I HAVE TO ADMIT - I THOUGHT I DIED AND WENT TO HEAVEN! :rolleyes: HOWEVER, AFTERWARDS I FELT LIKE I COMITTED A MORTAL SIN! :( SUCH GUILT!!! :angry: I ALSO WENT OUT TO A RESTRAUNT LAST NIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE BEING BANDED ON 1/17. IT WENT BETTER THAN I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT. I ORDERED WHAT I WANTED BUT ONLY ATE SMALL PORTIONS OF EVERYTHING. I ORDERED STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST AND MASHED POTATOES WITH GRAVY AND SALAD AND I EVEN HAD A BIT OF HOMEMADE BREAD. I ALSO HAD A SMALL SCOOP OF RAINBOW ICECREAM FOR DESSERT! I ONLY HAD A BIT OF EVERYTHING AND GAVE THE REST TO MY HUSBAND. EVERYTHING WENT DOWN WELL AND NOTHING GOT STUCK! IT TASTED SO GOOD! :D THE ONLY BAD PART IS - TUESDAY IS WEIGH IN DAY AT THE DR. :o I GUESS I HAD BETTER START WORKING OUT AND TRY TO WORK OFF ALL THAT DELICIOUS FOOD AND CHOCOLATES!!!! :P "HAPPY VALENTINES DAY TO YOU ALL!"

Happy Vday to you too Rosey!

I havent eaten out yet although I think about it daily. Damn drive thru addiction! Youre mastering it all bit by bit. Keep it up!

As for the guilt, forget about it. Give yourself permission to make less healthy choices once in a blue moon. 80/20 is what I live by.

Live perfect 80% of the time and dont 20% of the time. I may amp that ratio up as it seems that I am currently doing great 90% of the time and 10% not but we have to allow the little flex for the human in us! :)

Keep up the good work!

Yeah seeing that both my wife and myself were banded last year it makes Valentine's day easier, but harder as it takes more thought as a box of chocs was easiest and last minute savior lol. We went out to dinner with friends on Sat to celebrate and we find it easiest to just order one entrée and split it, heck most times we still have left overs lol.

Why would you feel guilty about eating chocolates? I eat whatever I want... only very small portions. We cant deprive ourselves, that would be horrible. We are still allowed to ENJOY food!
