DDawnC 10 Posted April 5, 2007 If im tempted I think to myslef if I love that more than my most favorite thing. if there is a cookie thats tempting me Ill think, 'do I love that more than creme brulee?' No. "Do I love that more than coconut cake' no. It works and the odds of me being in the same room as a creme brulee or coconut cake are low, so ....If I ever am , Ill have to think of a new mantra Oh, this is right up my alley! Thanks for sharing this coping thought- I'm gonna use it.

WWCarol 0 Posted April 13, 2007 I love quotes!  "Satisfaction does not come from indulgence; it comes from achievement." -Calvin Coolidge   "Eating is not the problem; what you choose to eat is." -CW   "Love the right foods, at the right time, in the right way." -Dr. Phil   "I didn't come this far to be told what to do by a (insert food name here)!"   "Comfort, not calories."   "Avoid it, portion it, or walk it off." -CW   "There will be another time...there will be another biscuit." -Oprah   "We can do anything, if fat furry worms can fly!"   "You get what you settle for." -Thelma and Louise   "If you can eat it all year round, why overindulge?"   "Don't believe everything you think." -Bumper sticker   And something longer than a one-liner that will make you think:   "To be (maybe too) direct, what do we fear? Why do we build a wall of fat between us and whatever scares us? We hide so well, even the good stuff passes us by." -CW   May you be happy. May you be well.
