Muhahhaha! That's what a miracle looks like-->
But seriously...summer is HARD. Hectic schedules, kid's activities, time with friends, backyard parties...seriously!!
Despite an abundance of fresh and delicious fruits and veggies, there are big, fat juicy steaks and burgers, potato salad (calls my name ALL the time!), pasta salads, desserts....what's a person to do? Wish I had the answers. Do you? So far, moderation (to a degree) has been key. Easy? Hell no! I LOVE food. So yeah, it's a struggle. Being on maintenance I have been able to give myself a few liberties. A few. And I mean, only a few. Want that steak? Have it. BUT be careful with the rest of your day. That burger? HAVE it. But watch the rest of your day. See? As long as you are mostly doing it right, you'll be ok. Watch your triggers. Watch your intake. Watch those binges.
Speaking of binges...have you tried these? Dangerous but oh so good! Dangerous only if it causes triggers. Otherwise, a FANTASTIC treat at 1.5 each. WOOT!
So breakfast was a TREAT too. A healthy, filling, lovely treat!
