As we're gearing up for the Halloween and then the Christmas season of treats after treats, I thought I'd offer a little trick I do to help me get through the temptation.
In the past, I would chastise myself for eating candy or too much junk. "You're dieting, you're not allowed to eat this shit. It will totally derail your process. WTF is wrong with you."
But I now change that internal monologue, and it has made all the difference.
"I'm not the type of person who eats cheap halloween candy."
I can! I'm allowed. But it's just not my thing. I AM the type of person who enjoys a glass of wine with dinner, and eats a special homemade dessert. But I'm not the type of person who scarfs down treats at the christmas party, or runs through the drive through on the way home, or eats way to much sugar.
Just not my thing. Not how I choose to live my life.
