Kind of exciting

A few weeks ago we went down to San Diego to visit Millie and play cards. The next day I seemed to weigh too much, so I decided on some new eating rules: reasonable meals and no eating between meals.  (Sugar and wheat and other fast carbs have been out for a while.)  As a crutch for the first few days I used self hypnosis.  It works for me.

Now the exciting part:  after the first couple of days the new rules were dead easy--instant habit!  I have not had a thing to eat, except at meals, for weeks, and it isn't a big deal.  Almost like quitting cigarettes only faster.  I am not trying to sell self hypnosis, but I do think that if a popcorn, chocolate, and nut eater can watch the Australian open with no snacks, the habit might be there for the forming for anybody.

Just saying.

Keep warm
