Yes, I literally said these things out loud!
Hubby comes home for lunch. After eating, hubby grabs a darned carmel candy that was sitting on the table. I hear the celephane and envision the creamy carmel and it's sticky goodness in my mouth. ahh, sheer pleasure.. instant gratification! Hubby leaves with a kiss and I can smell that darn candy. I fix my water to take with me back to my office and I turn and spy the other carmels in a lil snack ziplock bag.
I say outloud:
NO! I refuse to eat you. I will NOT do it. As a matter of fact (strolling over to the table with my smaller jeans on!! and grab the bag) YOU can go meet your other buddies in the cookie jar. They are waiting for you. I do not want you. I want to be THIN and HEALTHY and HAPPY! So, in you go. (drops bag in jar) and stop calling my name because I will not answer you anymore!"
With that, I dusted my hands and fixed me a hot cup of instant decaf coffee with a splenda flavoring.. and it's making me feel MUCH better afterwards than eating a piece of candy
The feeling of instant gratificaton this way will last a whole lot longer too.
happy me!
