NSV - resisting the temptation

va_va_voom

There are muffins in our kitchen area for everyone to enjoy. Two of my co-workers have both tried to get me to eat one - and I've watched both of them eat one - but, I've resisted so far and am posting this NSV so that I will continue to resist eating one. No muffin tastes good enough to be worth wasting those calories!

They do not even taste good! I have had a few splurges since I got serious, and EVERY time I am sooooooooooo disappointed! What a joke. I believed the lies I told myself for years and all it got me was a huge lazy rump! WTG! Friend! Show those muffins, and coworkers, who's in control!!!!!!!!!!

SaraRT - you just reminded me that I forgot to buy gum on my lunch break. :sad: lol

Thanks nonnalynn! :bigsmile: I just keep telling myself that a muffin = muffin top (well, more of it, anyway lol).

Just think about all of the things you can eat INSTEAD of that muffin! A muffin will run you about 300 calories... you can have instead: 6 cups of strawberries (about two cartons), 6 1/2 all white meat turkey dogs from Ball Park (45 cals a piece!), a whole grilled chicken salad from carl's Jr, or even two whole 2 tacos from taco bell!

It won't even fill you up. It will make you hungrier for more sweets! Stay strong!

Muffin = muffin top. You my dear are a genius - I am so borrowing this phrase from you!!!

I have faith in you!! Stay strong beautiful. :flowerforyou:

Thanks everyone! I'm going to pop some popcorn and have a V8 (smacks forehead). Hopefully this NSV will lead to a scale victory!

This is GREAT! First off, CONGRATS! Secondly, I do that to my husband a lot...Smack his forehead and then say, "You should've had a V8." :laugh: hahahahaha
