Fruit is delicious, and I will miss the summer fruit, which is my favorite.

Licorice? I used to love it too. Now I worry about my teeth! 🙂

Although a good bagel would also taste good to me!

It depends what kind it is. Maybe I'll have a bite of yours!

I may splurge though and have a piece of cake and try to tempt you to join me.

Or red and black mixed, even better. But, my husband was diagnosed with diabetes and I am borderline. I haven't purchased red licorice for months--I'd eat 21 oz every 3 days. I still buy chewy type candies, but keep nuts in my purse. I love fruits. When I eat them, I wonder why sugar grabs me so. Fruit tastes way better. Good for you on your weight loss and new disciplines.

Hmm. Mine used to fill my plate to the brim. Tsk, tsk. They didn't know better, eh?

Now? It's all about portion control. And, like you, I try to wait a bit before giving into my cravings. Sometimes...

I hope your ankle keeps getting better and better. You are so committed to staying healthy by not giving into your cravings for a reward. Yes, my guys are flexible too. But sometimes they want to have what they want to have!

I do notice the longer I am away from chocolate the less I crave it.

I sure do miss it...

I hear you about emotional eating! As for late night eating, to me it was all about boredom and the frustration of not being able to sleep..

After my divorce I sat under a tree by a lake and polished off a whole bag accompanied by a coffee ice cream shake from Baskin Robbins. Now THAT is emotional eating. However, I find that I now have problems with late night eating. Not sure if it's tied to emotions or just lack of will power.
