Fast Food is More Fun if You Eat it Slowly!

Okay, I confess!!! I had a fast-food, patty melt today from What a Burger! Man, it was great!
But! (Here comes the rationalization..) I did climb up and down the stairs several times, at our healing center today...does that count?? 

Seriously, I feel absolutely no guilt! This is a huge break-through!  I am convinced, if I can learn to enjoy what I eat, I will eat less, and more slowly, and savor every bite!  What I have discovered, as I am re-learning to have a normal relationship with food, is that I am eating less, and enjoying it more.

Last weekend, I was enjoying a meal with my grandson, and he asked me, "Grandma, why do you keep putting your fork down?"  I had to try hard not to laugh.  I told him how it was helping me to slow down, and enjoy my meals more. He had a very thoughtful look on his face.

Looking forward to my workout tomorrow.  Hope your health plan is going well for you!
Blessings!
