I've found that banning myself from cookies and brownies leaves me feeling left out, deprived, angry, and resentful. So I'm trying the "nothing in excess" route for now. I'm still logging but stopped trying to limit to 1250 calories/day. My body seems so much more satisfied in the 1400/1500 range. Trying to make healthy choices most of the time. Not sure I'm succeeding yet. But it's all baby steps!<br /><br />And this is the second blog post of yours I read today that covered a topic I had been "blogging in my mind"!Cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15398170245040387614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3863037454625522723.post-67342718826490197412011-04-21T16:14:44.633-04:002011-04-21T16:14:44.633-04:00This is magnificent...honestly, my inner child is ...This is magnificent...honestly, my inner child is in control very little...I have too much to do. but in eating, she gets a lot of control.

The 5% fat rule is an easy one to follow. Over here in the UK all food has a chart on the back to say how much calorie/fat/sugar/starch etc there is per 100g so it's easy to find. But also, the minute you say you can't have something, the more you want it and it's all you can think of! It's not easy is it? Good luck!debs14https://www.blogger.com/profile/14521565769251816528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3863037454625522723.post-66316387740461091772011-04-20T03:33:07.495-04:002011-04-20T03:33:07.495-04:00I'm not sure of the logic of no grains after l...I'm not sure of the logic of no grains after lunch. I also think that the minute you ban something it becomes a must have. So be gentle with yourself. A balanced varied diet is what is needed. A piece of chocolate here or there will not harm you. I went to Rosemary Conley which is like WW with exercise and her mantra is to choose food that has 5% or less fat. I don't know how that works in ounces cos we use grammes. So it's 5g in every 100g which is how the food is labeled.Bernice Hopperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12155326856012097548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3863037454625522723.post-47062301302498496672011-04-20T02:51:57.148-04:002011-04-20T02:51:57.148-04:00Hi Kai
