WATERMELON.

it's out of season and I cry a little every time I spend the big bucks...lol....but it's the treat I crave like nothing else.

If anyone had told me I'd literally crave watermelon more than candy, donuts, fresh baked bread....I'd have said they were crazy.

I bought a deli container of melon chunks and ate it in the car the other day. LOL. But I thought...ya know...this is the time I used to break down and get fast food...after shopping. It's a habit trigger. So, now I eat watermelon in the car after shopping. I can live with that compromise.

And yep, it would probably be better to break the habit all together....but my therapist says "baby steps." "Be kind to yourself, you're doing a great job." "Do what works." "Mindful compromise is progress."

I like this whole idea of being nice to myself about food and not punishing myself anymore. I know where that leads.

The new me makes mindful compromises...and is kind to herself.

It's a good thing.

Nuts. All nuts. I have food restrictions so when I'm on the road they are a safe haven for me. I can eat them no matter what, I'll always have nuts, any country on the planet. Lol

I don't know that it's weird, but mine is dark chocolate. I have at least 1 piece every day. I track it!
