So I do this stupid thing. Here's how it goes: I'm kinda hungry and I want a snack. I'll look at the healthy snacks I have packed, like carrots and hummus/lowfat ranch, apple and peanut butter, etc. and think, "Oh, no, that's too big. I'll just grab something small." And by small, I mean a handful of those potato chips or just one little Dove chocolate... which NEVER stops. I'm always on my sixth or seventh "small handful" of chips or am staring at the growing pile of aluminum foil chocolate wrappers before I realize how stupid a decision I made.
Why do I do this? A banana is a better choice. An apple is a better choice. Even if I eat the apple AND the banana... it's STILL a better choice. I've done better at this today. More mindful snacking is something I definitely need to work on improving!
