Motivation is what drives us to greatness!

Trying to stay motivated today. My coworker loves to bake and brought what looks like a Cheesecake Factory Chocolate Tower Truffle Cake!!!! OMG!!! And she had the nerve to offer me some :-(. I cant with all this temptation around. I always feel like the fat girl who will eat anything in sight if it looks and sounds good. Sooooooo, I'm trying my best to defeat the urge to swallow the cake whole. "It will hurt. It will take time. This will require dedication. An enormous amount of will power. I know I'll need to make healthy decisions. Sacrifice will push my body to the max! There is always temptation but I promised myself that when I've reached my goal everything will be worth it!!!!!"

    maybe this will help... use that temptation as a cue to think about your goals. "that cake reminds me..." visualize your goal in vivid detail and think about why you've set it. if you can bring the long term postive benefits to mind, doing the right thing in the short term is easier.

    you might also want to walk out of whatever room that cake is in, too. ;)
