will I make it through the night?

the cravings have hit me full force....I really would love some Ben &Jerry's phish food right now. Fortunately there isn't any in the freezer, but there are plenty of other bad sweet things around here. It is times like this when it is the hardest to eat healthy. I start to try to rationalize that "just one little taste" won't hurt me.
I had this happen to me Saturday night too. Just as I was about to cave and grab the kids M&M's, I got a message from my nephew, William. He has started running 5k's and told me of a fun run/ walk in Raleigh that was taking place in a few weeks. He encouraged me to consider it and maybe work towards it. Now there is no way I would be able to do something like that right now, but it does appeal to me and maybe one day I'll be in shape enough to give it a try. Funny thing was that after reading the message and thinking about the possibility--I no longer had the urge for the sweets.
and now that I've written this ...my Ben & Jerry's craving is diminishing too......kind of funny....maybe I will make it through the night

anyone interested in joining me in a fun walk sometime?

  1. I wish you and I lived close enough to join each other for a walk. Jason and I have been walking in the evenings...we walk around our neighborhood...some inclines, but mostly flat. In addition to the exercise for both of us, it's the time we share. Lots of good stuff comes out when you least expect it ;-) So far, we're on week 3, we push each other...even in the heat, but this week is supposed to be beautiful!
