Afternoon at mom's

So I prepped my mom and told her that I wouldn't be eating the trail mix or cinnamon rolls that I knew she had left over, so she didn't even get the trail mix out and the cinnamon rolls weren't that much of a temptation. So I'm glad about that, but instead I'm fighting my urges to simply eat everything in sight or make myself another one to three or five more pb&j sandwiches to fill my emotional need. So I've noticed that I've been doing a lot of negative self talk since I can't self medicate myself with food. I'm chewing my last peace of gum right now. I am not going to buy more gum, because I feel that it increases my hunger instead of only giving me chewing satisfaction. I should have given it to my son Kyler who just loves to chew gum.
