Celtrixa

Just got back from Trader Joe's, went to check the mail and my Celtrixa shipment (a "miracle" stretch mark) cream came in today. It's starting to look like I'm falling for the infomercial scams this month (i.e. HCG drops and now Celtrixa). But really, I thought "Why not?". I have a ton of stretch marks from the baby and it can't hurt to rub useless cream on my tummy and pray that they go away. The worst that will happen is that it doesn't work. Oh well. I used the free trial they tell you on the commercials. Shipped promptly to the house, and only cost shipping + handling. Of course they are going to try to bill me after the standard 30-day crap (at which I will promptly cancel if I do not see an iota of difference) but let's just see what happens for these thirty days, and I will report back on its effectiveness.

Onto my interesting night last night. Hubby and I got in a HUGE fight (we're okay now), and all I wanted to do is order Dominoes, go to Carl's Jr, or anything else that would lessen (or distract me) from the anxiety I was feeling. It took everything I had not to go. Well, that and it was raining like CRAZY last night (so that definitely helped). I found that after about twenty minutes, the cravings started to go away and I was able to ride it out. I've heard that tip a million times (http://www.wikihow.com/Avoid-the-Temptation-to-Eat-Unhealthy-Foods) but I never thought it was true. IT IS. Just go do something for 30 minutes, and if see if the cravings are still there. Totally worked for me.

Had my customary Slim Fast + Hydroxycut for Breakfast and its almost about lunchtime. BUT THIS is what I'm having for Dinner. Made it last night and it was AMAZING. And healthy too. Instead of the foccacia bread slices, I switched them out for Grissini breadsticks (45 calories for two of them).

Now....off to wrangle my toddler into his bed for nap time...wish me luck :)
