Buns, that sounds delightful! How are those knees? I'll have to hit your journal and find out.
One thing I am doing is listening to the folks who say perfectionism is our enemy...or Chef AJ's majoring in minor things. So I ate late (between 7p and 9p) a couple of times in the past couple of weeks and had me some scrambled tofu this morn with mashed potatoes and Ezekiel bread. When I'm in my perfectionist mode I would feel like a failure though I don't eat tofu often. This would lead to giving up. So, I remember in the past where I tried to convince myself to listen to Dr. McDougall when he said for weight loss we could do Max weight loss program and then cheat with regular. I think looking over the years that when I adhere to this notion of success I always do better. So this is where I'm at. Trying to do this. And when I go off the rails a bit like eating those vegan cookies I made for the church caroling I say....no need to engage in a bunch of drama and self loathing because I really am not a sweets person and won't continue this and I just go on back to my eating the good stuff. I feel accomplished...like after all these years I have figured something out though I think many times in my journal I have said similar, this time feels like i believe it more. Maybe all that therapy I've been doing is helping. Or maybe I'm just too dang old to keep up the same crap. Anyway, I feel good and grateful that I have access to all this good food. Plan to have some oats and broc for lunch or whenever I get hungry and perhaps a big bowl of kale and mango salad. I may make some mung bean soup for the next few days.
