Mars bar vs. me

verilla

I stood in line at the Superstore, waiting for the cashier to process all the veggies and yogurt I was buying. I picked up a Mars Bar slim. I read the back and told myself that it wasn't much and thought how I really wanted some sweet, caramel chocolate. I placed it on top of my green beans. I stared at it and stared at it. I put it back and turned to the lady behind me. I said to her, "That took so much will power for me to do that." She smiled and chuckled a bit. I just smiled and took my two bags of healthiness to the Jeep.

I shared this simple little story in my profile, but I wanted to yell it from the mountain tops! I felt so victorious.

I bet we all have those moments to share.....

Good job!! Yesterday, I had a similar experience. I was picking up a sandwich at the convenience store and strolled around the store while it was being made. I had the bag of Baked Lays in my hand, thought about it, did some quick math in my head. Then realized I didn't need the calories or the sodium and put the bag back on the shelf. Turns out, the sandwich was enough for lunch, didn't need the chips. Yay, us!! :flowerforyou:
