Willpower

For Valentine’s Day, my parents got me a tin similar to the one above. Typically, I would plow through this tin in about a week, but there were a few things keeping me from doing so. Namely, buying Girl Scout cookies and being part of a Biggest Loser-style weight loss challenge at work. Currently, I am totally thinking about ripping open a bag of popcorn (I left the highest calorie ones for last) and eating it. The problem is that I am just under my maximum calorie allotment for the day which wouldn’t be such a big deal if it wasn’t for the poor food choices I have made in the past couple of days.
This is the point where a little give could totally spiral me back into weight gain mode. So, I am mostly writing this in an effort to shame myself into not being destructive. Since this is a blog that should be about technology of some sort, I will say that I have been using DailyBurn’s Tracker both online and as an Android app. Counting calories is certainly easier than it has ever been. If you’re looking to lose some weight, I highly recommend at least logging what you eat to see where you could be making better choices.
