The daily plate tells me I can eat this many ::holds fingers up:: calories. I can't think about it that way - doesn't work for me. If I think about 1500 calories, I overdo it. That "sounds like a lot, doesn't it?" but realistically, it isn't - and if I allow myself to think it's "perfectly okay" to have that much - I overdo it by at least 500. But, don't listen to me ramble about this stuff, I hate diet-head thinking, it leads to disordered thinking and eating. I like to just go with the flow.
Now only if I could go with the flow and not over-do it. THAT, my friends, is the cure for us fatties and former fatties.
