I've resurrected an old hobby that's helping me a little. I'm knitting a Christmas stocking for baby Penelope, that's similar to the ones that Audrey Crowe knit for all the kids, grandkids, and great grandkids, as she is no longer around to do it. I like the feeling of continuing that tradition on her behalf, and I like that having my hands busy in the evenings keeps me out of the kitchen more.
I had a bite of Oreo cheesecake at work today, that became 4 pieces. It makes me sad that I can't have just a little. Otherwise I'm doing fine, and as committed as ever. I'm also reminding myself of what I've accomplished as well as what I still need to learn...
Love, elly
Now that's a great idea! I remember taking up knitting when I quit smoking and it definitely helped. If this doesn't sound too stupid, what about chewing gum at the same time? (and no that was not a joke) Or artificially sweetened candy?
