To all my fellow Americans, have a wonderful and safe holiday as we celebrate Independence Day this Fourth of July!
What's your eating strategy for the day?
My plan is to indulge... but not to over-indulge. I'm going to eat what I want... but not eat as much as I want. Moderation is the key... not deprivation!

Did you ever have that determined little voice you used inside your head to repeat over and over "I will not over eat... I will not put that in my mouth... I will resist"? and have that second little voice that's so much quieter but all the more convincing saying "you KNOW you're going to eat that, why even pretend you aren't"?
Today we're doing "movie day" at the house... which means popcorn and candy for the kids. Now mommy has to find some way to fend off the urges to have a little herself.
My food strategy SHOULD have been not to buy the stuff in the first place... now It's going to be all about willpower.
I don't want to indulge at all. Popcorn is like crack to me.
Kate, did you ever try the 100-calorie single serving bags of popcorn? I absolutely love them and eat one almost every day. They fill me up, and it's a "normal" food... something I can eat and not feel like I'm eating it to lose weight. I just eat it because it's good! :)
I absolutely agree with your plan for the day....my plan exactly. We'll see how it works though after tonight.....I'm learning to live as life goes on around me!
I think the key is you have a plan, which is great. I didn't have a plan and munched on far too many chips for my own good.
