BLTs

So I wrote out a post about not eating any BLT's this week (bites, licks and tastes).  I was really thorough in my explanation of what that would entail and how careful I would be to write every little thing down.  And then I realized, it wasn't very do-able.  It wasn't practical.  I was setting myself up to fail.

Instead, I'm going to try to limit my BLT's this week and to set up a two point buffer every day to account for them.  This is not "well I gave myself two points so I can have this bite of fudge" this is a safety measure.  Really, the point behind the original post of absolutely no BLT's is to make myself aware of everything that I eat, every morsel, every calorie.  I find that I'm not making conscious choices and then afterward regretting it. 

I need to be an active participant in my food choices.  To think things through and figure out their points BEFORE eating them, not after.  I think that this is a very do-able goal.
