My NSV for the day

edited September 2024 in Success Stories
So this morning after I weighed in and had a good weigh in, I was so happy. I told myself "you can have a little cheat today because you have been so good all week" so I talked myself right into that yummy apple fritter that the gas station sells. I even drove the opposite direction of work to get it. When I got into the store, I said to myself "do you really need that apple fritter?" and I just bought a bottle of water instead and left the store without the apple fritter. I was really proud of myself!

    Just remember, ever step in the other direction is further you have to walk back. The reward will be your goal, its sweeter then any apple fritter :-) good job

    Awesome! That takes self-discipline!..Hmmm. Maybe have an apple instead with that water to satisfy that apple-flavour craving? :-D

    That is a great statement. I also saw: Ask yourself this - Will this take me a step closer to my goal or a step away from my goal?

    I had 4 chocolate covered almonds last night. I kept reading post after post of everyone having desserts - "diet" or otherwise! 4 almonds for 56 calories got me through....unlike my husband who probably ate half a cup!
