Your Favorite Treat!



Recommended Posts

Hey Everyone,

I was wondering what everyone's little indulgences were. Not food wise, but to reward yourself for maybe a couple pounds lost, or even just to cheer yourself up on a rainy Sunday. It could even be things you use at home to distract yourself so you don't think of food.

Mine are: A Venti Tazo Tea with Skim Milk, Honey, and Splenda from Starbucks or Getting my nails done.

I don't have any great distractions. I definitely think of food less when I'm out of the house. But sometimes I'll ride my exercise bike and if I hit my goal, I'll go get a tea!

I used to spend a fortune on magazines, but when I got hooked on Pinterest.com , I didn't need the magazines at all, as Pinterest covers all of my interests, ( recipes, health and fitness, home decor, women's fashion, etc). But every once in awhile I'll indulge myself and buy a new magazine. Usually a Womens Running or Instyle. That and a cup of of hot tea and Im good !

My favorite gift to myself is riding horses and scuba diving.

For milestones or goals met it is personal indulgences for me. Pedicure, massage, new piece of exercise clothing or socks, etc

For the everyday occupying my time and something to do to distract myself is usually some form of exercise or household organizing. There is always something around the house in need of some desperate attention with 2 boys and a husband. ;)

A foot massage from a local spa. Thirty bucks for forty minutes of bliss.

My favorite treat to do at home to distract myself from eating or snacking in the evenings is to give myself a manicure/pedi. It is hard to snack when your nail polish is drying. I also do face masks in the evening too. This way my nails always look perfect and my skin benefits too!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
