Healthy food all day long- all week long. (I think- I am not qualified to define healthy eating)

Glass of red wine in hand. Okay, 2nd glass of red wine.

For the first time in a couple of months, I am not completely drained on a Thursday night.

Is it the healthy food? Why do I have energy?

I don't know that I care, so I go to the kitchen to get some Girl Scout cookies.

Dave has polished them off.

And that is my reward for healthy eating. I wait too long to eat the cookies and they are gone.

Doesn't that qualify as negative reinforcement?


EDIT ON FRIDAY: I found the cookies. Dave hid them. The trick actually worked because by the time I found them I didn't want any and couldn't help but laugh. Who hides cookies from their wife? Really? Good stuff.

We went through a small food revolution last year and have, for the most part, stuck with it. I laughed at your story because that happens to me too...I'll wait too long to go eat something like cookies or an ice cream snickers bar and my husband will have already mowed it down. It's very disheartening.
