That must be a very good friend you have there (and she was brave to tell you that). @Fit, I'm seriously liking Twitter! That accountability shout out I made on Tuesday is what helped me out in my moment of weakness. I'm not finding it's a productivity waster (yet, hope that doesn't happen! ;) ), and I love the real-time of it. @Melanie, yes, yes, yes.....I can relate 100%. And I'm the same way - once I start eating that stuff (my issue is being addicted to refined sugar and flour), I'm not able to have just one. I can also relate to not really enjoying what I'm eating then, because I'm thinking about how I'm sabotaging my own weight loss goals. Now if someone can eat only a little and eat only when hungry, then that's awesome - I'm just not able to do that with the sugar & flour. Hi all, thanks for your wonderful comments and feedback! :)

You know like- you've been good all day so a little snack won't hurt. But, then I know I won't be able to stop once I start. And most of the time, I don't even enjoy what I'm eating. <em>Melanie's last blog post..<a href='http://livinwithme.com/?p=530' rel="nofollow">Random Recipe Exchange</a></em> I definitely tell myself lots of lies.
