I had to share this. In my eyes, this was big!

So I usually don't pass up when someone at work orders out. Before I started I'd order whatever I want, then when I started I began ordering a bit healthier. However, it was weighing on my calories and my wallet!

Today, they went to taco bell. I am a sucker for taco bell!( even though it's completely gross and no good for you) I looked up the nutrition and even their "healthy" fresco menu had nothing under 230-ish calories. So what did I say?

"No thank, I packed my lunch."

HA, I did pack my lunch. A healthy broccoli and cheese, and an apple. YUM!

I was so proud of myself, i wanted to share it!

    Thanks! It feels great. I can smell it throughout the office (which makes me feel good, haha) but my broccoli and cheese is really good.

    I love the veggies and fruits and all the healthy stuff, but my problem was always passing on the stuff that isn't healthy, but oh-so-good!

    My favorite feeling in the world is how good I feel when I have the strength to pass up something that I know is bad for me... Great job!!

    Great Job!! It's all right to splurge every once in a while, so long as you have many more good days than bad :happy: Down the road, you'll splurge and have Taco Bell and realize it doesn't taste that great after all...

    I did that the other day with Burger king. It wasn't as good as I was expecting it to be.
    I also do that when I drink regular coke. It bother me now
