One of my lola's employees from Leyte gave us a sack of kamote, so that's what I brought for my snack today. Boiled kamote. It took me an hour to eat it, because it was the variety that was rather grainy, and it wasn't covered in caramelized sugar. Not as fun as a cookie.
Speaking of cookies, I came home yesterday to find that my mom had baked chocolate chip walnut cookies to give to a family friend. Half would go to him; the other half was ours. AUGH.
As I also said in the forums earlier, I always have a slice of birthday cake every day until said cake no longer exists. (Don't worry, my brothers also help me out, so it never goes on for more than three days.) But still. I have not had birthday cake since my birthday, and that only happened because I adamantly defied Charmaine and Laarni's rules.
I'm going crazy.
I said that I was fine at the start, but the prolonged ban took its toll on me. I suppose I can get by for about 2-3 days without sweets before I start looking for it again.
If anything, I do expect to be more conscious of not giving in to my sweet cravings every time, as Trina also wrote. I can, and maybe I should, go back to my old dessert-3x-a-week schedule, which I followed while I was losing weight. I've since laxed that rule since entering weight maintenance.
Can we never do this again?
