Wracks . . . good for you! I dont know if I could have done that!
I resisted the temptation of pizza today myself. Feeling good about it which means I am one step closer to my goal.0 -
It's one of my cycling days, 30 miles round trip on my road bike on a route with some fairly vicious hills. Have usually used training days as an excuse for eating a shedload more than I normally would, but I've stayed sensible today and resisted the urge to pig out.0

My boss bought everyone in the office meat lovers pizza...Over 30 boxes of pizza and the entire 25000sqft building resonated with the delicious aroma of melted cheese and lightly toasted dough.
...Yet I ate plain chicken breasts instead...
Now THAT is will power! Good job!!! :drinker:0 -
A cookie! Ohhh maaan I wanted that cookie so bad. I was staring at it as my left eye twitched. My fingers were twitching. A bead of sweat rolled down my face.
But I got the fruit cup instead.
It was an intense moment. I guess you had to be there.
Lol i feel you! Good job!! :happy:0 -
I wasn't tempted by any particular treat today (aside from eating lunch in a restaurant and making a firm decision to order a salad instead of the fettuccini), but I do usually keep track of the treats I successfully avoid in my hand-written health journal.
That way, if I haven't lost anything on the scale at the end of the week I can still read the journal and know that on Tuesday I totally avoided the chocolate-chip banana bread , and on Thursday I ran the other way when I saw my co-worker's birthday cake in the staff room. So, in a way, I "lost" the weight of those treats by never gaining it in the first place.
Er, does that make sense?

I craved chocolate a a full-sugar bottle of Coke last night, and was all set to walk up to the corner store and get them. I stayed home and had some fresh cherries, instead.
I craved the same things, today, and resisted. I had a Diet Dr Pepper (which I have planned with my ED counsellor to ween off of, over the next while), plus some more cherries.0 -
We had a chili cook off today at work. They brought in four different chilies, sour cream, cheese, onions, cornbread, fritos, tortilla chips, pumpkin rolls, sugar cookies and cake. The chili was cooking all day in the office and the aroma filled the office. I decided to eat my lunch , baked salmon, before everyone else dug into the chili. I'm happy to say that I did not have any of that, not even a little taste.0

A few days ago I turned 24, and I politely told my mother not to get me a birthday cake this year. She respected my wishes, but sadly no cake meant no song
Haha! 0 -
i bought a 'tear and share' cream cake for the girls at work and had none!! 0
-
Ice cream at cold stone and instead went for one of their low calorie shakes!0

Almost got a smoothie at Panera today - the woman on the intercom didn't hear that part of the order though, so I just said not to worry about it... I took that as the universe telling me to stop shoving crap down my gullet.

Lol! That's a good idea!! And makes lots of sense I might start doing that! 0 -
BUMP
I'm back, after months of slacking! Long story, but I DID quit smoking a week ago today, and am confident that I will stick with that healthy life choice for good! Now, I feel like I need to be careful because I've already been terrible about eating and excercising for months and lately I've had the urge to snack a LOT more. So today's my first day back in months. I resisted chocolate chip cookies that a coworker made and brought in today! How bout you?!0 -
I ate at Buffalo Wild Wings and I really wanted a Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich, fries with cheese, and a ton of Ranch. Instead, I got Grilled chicken tenders, a side of sauce, and had a small fry with no cheese. It was still good, but not as good I also have wanted to raid my cupboard full of Christmas goodies - but I've resisted. 0

Avoided nothing... I didn't get near temptation to have to fight it 0

the cookies and chocolates and popcorn that's STILL at my office0

So far so good, but I won't know until I go grocery shopping after work and they are putting the warm bread out so you can smell it across the store....*kitten*....0

chocolate at work0

Someone brought in several full cheesecakes in to work today. You know the kind that are from the store, already sliced, and each slice is a different kind? I SO love cheesecake, but I resisted, and didn't have one single morsel! 0

Good job!! I only brought a banana to work today... hopefully I don't stuff my face later. 0

I got hungry in between meals at work and really wanted some soup but I couldn't find any in the vending machines. In the past I would have settled for a different item out of the machine, but today I decided to not get anything since what I really wanted wasn't there. I waited until it was meal time and ate what I prepared which is tons healthier than anything in the machines! Crisis, averted. :P0

Complete side note, but I love how most of the temptation comes from people's workplaces! People are constantly talking about "getting fat" and worried about gaining weight yet they bring sugary crap in almost daily. It drives me nuts.0

I walked by the four squares of dark chocolate sitting on the counter dozens of times today. Finally I mentioned to hubby that he should just eat it.
There is no "just one" for me. One square usually leads to a major binge.0 -
