So, this is very small, but it made a huge difference in my attitude this morning! For the past 3 months or so I have been sitting at 129 lbs (I'm only 5' tall). I've had a crazy summer and haven't been able to give my body 100% of what it needs. Well, life has calmed down in the last couple of weeks so I've gotten back to my healthy routine. Last night, after a day with no exercise but really good eating, we decided to go out to see a friend's band play and have a couple of drinks. Careful not to go over board, I only had to 55 cal beers and then switched to water. On the way home my super in shape fiance' who loves late night fast food snacking decides that he wanted to stop by Sonic on the way home. I allowed it and suffered through the ordering process and smelling it in the car the whole way home. When we got home I went into the bedroom to get ready for bed while he ate, knowing that if I saw that mozzerella stick I wouldn't be able to resist! lol But this morning when I woke up and got on the scale, it had finally moved down to 128 and my broken out face from all of my recent stress had completely cleared up! The victory was not only that the scale finally moved, but the fact that I was FINALLY able to say "no" even during such a long plataue!

    Oh, wow. I admire your ability to resist mozzarella sticks! (Then again, I did the other day, too... but that was off a menu... not sitting in the same room with them! lol.)

    WTG! Having the willpower to say either yes or no to what ever the situation is a huge accomplishment! Congrats to being consistant and breaking thru that platou. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
