My Big, Fat, Chocolate Cake

I really have a problem with self-sabotage and that's never been more evident than last night when I made a chocolate cake just so I could eat some batter! Today, I ate a huge piece of cake with extra icing. What is wrong with me?! I can't seem to make any headway with losing weight to save my life! But, boy, was that cake good.

My biggest problem is the sweets. I can't seem to give 'em up no matter how hard I try. Maybe that's the issue. Maybe denying myself something I'm craving makes me give in. I wonder if I were to allow myself a sweet treat every so often (like, say, once a week) if I would be less likely to want it.

I've been working on watching what I eat and how much of it but there are days when I feel like I could eat everything in sight. That's probably because I'm not a big breakfast person. Imagine that, a meal I won't eat. I had my husband pick up some breakfast sandwiches today at the market for me. I'm going to remove the sausage patty before microwaving it because I'm trying to watch the amount of meat I eat.

Tonight's dinner is turkey tacos with all the veggies I can handle. I'm looking forward to sinking my teeth into some of my homegrown, red, juicy tomatoes! Alright, it's time to get up and get the laundry folded. My weekends are full of catching up on housework and homework. I feel like I'm neglecting this blog so bear with me.

Enjoy what's left of your weekend. I hope it's been productive!
