NSV -- my first

sgoldman328

So after a family dinner -- something that's always been hard to be "good" about -- my mom, brother, and Dad devoured HALF A GALLON of ice cream. Before MFP, I would've grabbed a spoon and joined the carnage. But now, the idea of ice cream wasn't even appetizing! I don't know whether it was just that I wasn't hungry, or because I new exactly what ice cream was going to do to my day, or that I was just a bit disgusted by watching three people literally tear apart this gallon of ice cream. Whatever the reason was, I'm very happy for my first NSV!

YES! I encountered this a few weeks ago when my friends wanted to get pizookies at BJ's. Normally, I would've said yes and ordered a regular size. This time we went, and all 4 of them got a regular and felt horrible afterwards. I got laughed at, but ordered a mini, and felt much better about it. Amazing what change can do. Keep it up!

Good victory and it wasn't something you worked hard to accomplish. It sounds like it just happened. I've often thought that eating in front of a mirror would be a good idea for me. Congratulations.

Pizookie is a dessert at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse: http://www.bjsbrewhouse.com/menus/desserts

"You’re never too old to enjoy our freshly baked, hot out of the oven, rich and delicious cookie topped with two scoops of vanilla bean ice cream and served in its own deep dish. Your choice of Chocolate Chunk, White Chocolate Macadamia Nut, Peanut Butter or Oatmeal Raisin Walnut."

You can also get a Red Velvet Cookie, Triple chocolate or cookies and cream. They can be very addicting; they are so good! Kudos to you on getting a mini!! :flowerforyou:
