Successes

jessica91b17

I am trying to stay motivated to make healthy choices so I thought one way to do that would be to celebrate successes, big or small. I stayed under my calorie goal and resisted a big temptation today. What have you succeeded with?

I didn't eat at McDonald's when everyone else ordered food. I was tempted because the food smelled good. I couldn't order anything because I was already slightly over my calorie limit for today. So, a small success. Thanks for the thread, Jessica. Good job staying under your calorie goal.

I went to one of my favorite restaurants today and didn't overeat. I saved half of the meal for lunch. (They give large portions)

No late night binge last night!!!
And so far today-
I am focused and confident.
Listening to my body and learning to discern hunger from boredom!

I resisted brownies and cake & icecream at a birthday party today. Also managed to stay under my calorie goal and drank 3 cups of green tea.

I resisted the urge to binge on chocolate cake during a birthday celebration at work. It was really hard cuz I love chocolate but I told myself I would have one slice and I'm happy for sticking to just one. It was delicious!

There's a whole forum here dedicated to success stories. If you need motivation, it's a good place to read.

Good job everyone! My success today is I didn't go too much over my calorie limit of 1,200. It's a start. Lately, I have been way over my limit. So I am happy. Yay me! Yay everyone. Especially those fighting the temptation of cake and other goodies. Oh, my goodness. Again, yay to everyone!

My son came home from college so we went out for Mexican food. I ate within my calories. When we got home I still had 3000 steps to get for the day but it was cold and dark outside. So I changed and went to the gym and banged out 6000 steps! Who even am I???

Day/ No late binges again.
The weight is coming off and the self control is back!

At Thanksgiving dinner, I only had a bite of chocolate cake and pumpkin pie. Yay me!
