279 chocolate

Ugh!  Usually, if I have chocolate here I feel secure and can leave it alone, but not these last two days. If I can't leave it alone I'll have to take the bag home and just bring home today's allotment. We'll see.  Whatever works. As always the big thing I need to avoid is deprivation and resentment.  For sure I need to bring some snacks.  It would have been much better to have had a 1 point soup today than 4 or 5 points of chocolate because I was hungry.  Things are a little tough on the point counting front. Yesterday I was on track, but was a bit thrown because I had planned to go to SLC and then the plan changed. Instead I made a terrific stuffed chicken dish from cooking light magazine, but only loosely counted the points.  Tonight's challenge is the RS dinner.  It's supposed to be a "light" dinner--which usually means plenty of calories but not filling. I'll do my best with it, but I refuse to feel guilty about it tonight--I just got back from doing strength training.  Oh my.  I haven't done this since before my knee got hurt in October.  My body is clearly made of pudding. It's wonderful that I can do it during work hours, but darn it, it's still a workout.  I think I'll see if I can get my ipod going.
