NSV - At the donut store!!

So I was out for lunch today, I sat on a bench and had my super healthy goats cheese, spinach and avacado salad.

Afterwards I was really craving something sweet...so I thought 'to hell with it' made a detour to the donut store on the back to work. On the way there I had a little day dream about an upcoming vacation to Hawaii that I have planned for next month, and in my minds eye I could see myself in a bikini...I got to the store and turned right around again...and I think I felt so much better for doing that than I would have for indulging and screwing my calorie count up for the day!!

Great Job!! This happens to me with the free cookie from Subway when you order via app. I have finally been able to decline it, instead of adding the 200+ calories to my day! Feels really good to make healthy, conscious decisions!

Great job! This is something I'm still working on. Happy to hear you have made it.

Today was my kids' first day of school and after I ran, I decided I was going to treat myself. I happened to be at Target and decided I wanted some chocolate. I picked up and put down about 6 different candy bars- I just couldn't do it. I ended up going home and having a bowl of oatmeal with a tablespoon of mini chocolate chips and peanut butter for lunch.

That said, I'm not sure I could have passed up a donut. A maple bar sounds really good right now...

Woohoo! I'm lucky I guess in that I don't have a love for sweets, but there are just a few things that are hard to resist. I did a really long run the other day (13 miles in the morning) but ate great/clean all day. I even made it through a staff outing at a baseball game with tons of free food and beer. I frequented the veggie section, ate chicken instead of hotdogs, and let myself have one beer and one cookie. ONE! I could have had about six. haha. Gotta love NSVs!

Way to go, everyone
