Delayed Gratification!

Yesterday was my first day of trying on the Delayed Gratification. It was truly an enlightening experience. I learned that I am able to put off a craving for 24hrs. Now, let me real, for a brief moment I did have to fight the urge to just put some thing in my mouth. Putting food in my mouth has been a long time habit, so it too a little effort. One I made the decision all I needed was a little push to follow through. I did not feel the pressure I normally feel when I go on total restriction plans. I had no craving for any food, nor did I feel like I had to constantly distract myself to keep from eating. I felt energy and peace. Bonus, I walked for half an hour this morning. The walk left me feeling energized, but not rushed. The thirty minute walk is my new baseline for walking and I am making peace with that. It is just enough time to feel like I did something without feeling like it is taking up too much of my time. Thirty minute windows are not difficult to find, compared to entire hours. CLM
