Day 2: November 11th

Most mornings I make a smoothie, but I had NO idea exactly how much I was making. Even healthy things in large quantities isn't good. Tomorrow I will try to use less ingredients- I'm never good at that because I throw in what I've got. 
Other reflections from the day:

1. I ate some of the leftover pie for a mid afternoon snack. I really had every intention of eating the rest of it . . . it didn't look like much. Then not all of it fit into my small bowl so I heated some and had every intention of finishing off on a second round. After eating my first portion (like I said, I'm seriously addicted to sugar) I felt satisfied. If I had put it all on my plate right away I wouldn't have stopped. Having to go back and make a second portion gave me the few extra seconds to stop myself from eating more.

2. Bringing the dishes along is tougher than I thought. Dinner was finger food at a Bemis Auction preview party. Not healthy at all nor did I use my dishes. At the end a few of us spontaneously decided to go out for a beer. As I started drinking my cider I realized that I forgot my dishes. I should have been drinking from my cup! It was good to at least be conscious of it and hopefully remember next time.
