Is licking the bowl ok?

I have my meals/snacks and portions of each charted out for the day.  The hummus on the side of my bowl that I could not get with my broccoli...is it OK to lick it out?  I have accounted for everyone of those sneaky calories that are trying to allude me....they are mine!  Maybe it is true that when we really tighten some part of our life up, another part (like my brain) goes a little goofy??!

Our discussion during workout yesterday was good.  We are working hard-results are minimal- we are not willing to go through this 90 day commitment and not see measurable results...hence again...food has to be the issue--as it always seems to be!  I did weigh myself this am.  From the get go, I am 4 lbs down.  I did not gain over Thanksgiving and the days of snitching that followed, but 4 lbs and starting week 5..time to zoom in on the culprit...food.

For the next 2 weeks I am going to do a little experiment.  Each night I will map out my food/portions for the next day...all 1500 calories of it.  I will do it when I am not hungry and I will follow it to the T.  I will allow myself one meal each week where I do not count the calories.  This whole healthy life/loose the fat, has to be livable.  I will eat what my family eats, no special foods.  I  must know my portions and supplement with lots of low cal veggies etc.  I will report my weight loss with this experiment on Monday December 12.  Anyone care to do this with me?  So thankful I have you all to keep me accountable...again on my own, disastrous.

On the flip side...I will not let  one calorie escape me.  If you see me licking containers...you  know what I am going after!
