Shopping

Well, I really am not a fan of shopping at stores. I rather buy it online and have it delivered instead of facing crowds and pushy sales people. However, a friend asked if I would go to the outlet mall in Tulare with her and her roommate. I decided that I really had nothing better to do and it would be nice to get out of town. I realized that it was a long weekend, and kept thinking the traffic coming back would be horrible. However, since I wouldn't be driving, then it couldn't be so bad. So we got there, and I looked in a few stores. I am getting kind of excited as I lose weight. I am able to fit into sizes that the cute stores have. My regular store, Lane Bryant, is starting to not have clothes small enough to fit me. While that makes me happy, I am a bit sad because I have found plenty of cute things in that store. So the three of us shopped for about four hours. I thought that we were never going to finish. Just about before we were going to leave, we stopped in at the Rocky Mountain Fudge Factory. It smelled so good. However, I looked at the things behind the counter and none of them looked like they would satisfy my chocolate craving. Plus, I have told myself that if I have been good all week, I would be able to give myself a serving of my favorite chocolate candy and not feel guilty for eating it. So far this has worked. I know that I should not be rewarding myself with food, because that will get me back into the bad eating habits that I have, however, I want to be able to eat some sweets and not feel guilty because I am breaking a diet, or that they are high sugar or fat. So I think that is okay that I can eat it once a week, in moderation, and I shouldn't feel guilty for eating a serving. :-)
