I was feeling like I wanted a little something sweet
yesterday just before I headed to bed. I
had worked the late shift at work so I had to get rounded up for bed quickly. I kept trying to talk myself out of getting
into my leftover Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup shake that was in the freezer.
Since trying to talk myself OUT of eating some wasn’t
working I talked myself INTO eating just a couple of bites. In all honesty, I am not even sure if those
bites would have been counted. I had already
gone over my 30 DPA by 7 PPVs. Since I
didn’t do any activity I had to use my WPPA to cover it.
Much to my surprise, I opened the freezer to find no
ice cream shake in there. Hmmmm…..looks
like Kenyon ate it! A quick confirmation
and I had my answer. He said “it called
to me so I had to eat it.” Funny, it was
calling to me too. Or at least the ghost
of it was!
I suppose I should be thankful Kenyon ate the
shake. Of course I am always willing to
share. But now, it not only saves me
from using the PPVs to finish it off but it only confirmed what I knew before I
went the freezer: I wasn’t going to be honest with those PPVs consumed.
I don’t make a habit of not tracking accurately. I am actually quite good with adding 1 PPV
for a small piece of chocolate even if it wasn’t quite a full point. I also will take a small sliver of a dessert
and count it as 2 or 3 PPVs. Tracking
inaccurately only hurts me. Just because
I didn’t write a food down doesn’t mean I didn’t consume it. The same thing goes with eating less than a
full serving of a food. If I have the
ability to run the NI I will do that so I can get an accurate PPV number. I 100% believe in honest tracking.
The WW Gods were looking out for me last night!
