Praying for better control

Yesterday I made these graham crackers after deciding that I was going to try to make them with a healthy fat (canola oil) instead of saturated fat laden margarine.  So, I did, and although they taste slightly better with margarine I feel a whole lot better giving my daughter them with healthy fats instead.  I also made some whole wheat crackers, and when I perfect that recipe (or just make it completely right) I will post it on here as well.  It uses a mild oil as well, which makes me feel better about giving them to K.  With making crackers comes testing crackers, and with testing crackers comes binging on yummy, crispy crackers.  That is what I did yesterday.  I am pretty upset with myself.  Why do I lose such self control all of the time?  Okay, I understand that it is not all of the time, but it feels like it.  That is my constant, constant, constant struggle.  Self-control.  I am really good at saying no to things I should definitely never put in my mouth, like saying no to drugs or alcohol.  But, when it comes to food, its a whole other ball game.  I've got the whole making and eating healthier foods down.  Its the portion control I have issues with.  I like to snack.  I like to snack too much.  When it comes to making crackers, I just need to not eat them, or else I feel angry at myself later for shoveling them in.  I pray for better self control today.  I pray that I will write everything down that I eat.  I pray that I will stay within my calorie budget.  I pray that I will do the work I need to stay healthy and fit.  My Achilles heel is sweets and snacks, but I will not let it destroy me.  I will conquer this weakness, for it is the Lord who said that we are given weaknesses that they may become strengths (Ether 12:27).  May I keep that in mind as I continue on this beautiful September day.  I will gain better self-control.  I will. 

What is your Achilles heel when it comes to self control?
