DairyKing's Journal, 01 June 2015

Good Morning, FS Warriors! Made it through the weekend without having to manage any real Damage Control. I had a couple instances yesterday where the cravings were starting to get the best of me. I wanted something, but really hadn't thought much about eating, so I would grab a few cashews each time I passed the kitchen counter. Now, I know that cashews are not the most horrible snack you can have, in fact they are probably a good protein snack. But they do have a lot of calories, and if you are like me - a calorie counter - munching on them can rob you of the opportunity to eat a nutritiously balanced meal. So, I just had to say, "Enough of this!" and looked up on FS, the caloric deficiency I was running thus far for the day, and sat down to a pretty satisfying dining experience that got me through the rest of the day. I think dieting really ought to be about getting the biggest benefit from the things you do shove in your mouth, while staying true to your RDI, or whatever drives you in your eating plan. I have found that unplanned snacking just leads to more snacking; I have never found that I am ever fully satisfied from snacking. When the box is gone; I generally want to move on to something else. Bottom line: if you are truly hungry - eat; but eat right. Just sayin. Toodles!

Nuts can be satisfying - but I have to measure them out in to a little cup - and when they are gone, it is over!

Snacking did me in this week as well. I started to get in the habit of eating a late breakfast, skipping lunch, snacking before and after dinner. Gained over a pound but learned my lesson, I hope!
