Man......all I wanted when I got off work was a McDonald Snack wrap and some fries...I had my plan and my money ready.....and I drove to those bright, golden arches...... and just kept driving.....they faded away in the distance and I went home and made a delicious, healthy, low-fat meal.....and I feel so proud of myself and my newly discovered self-control

    Way to go! That's awesome. I have to admit, I could never do that. I'd probably order two snack wraps! hahaha

    I almost did the same thing today except it was ice cream at Culver's. I knew it was over 400 calories! It was so funny how I argued with myself. : )
    I wanted ice cream sooo bad, but then I kept thinking of all the workouts that I did this week that would have been in vain.

    It's amazing how good we feel when we do this and how much easier it is to do the same in the future.

    Woohoo for you!!!!
