I'll admit that I have a hard time turning down treats. I am working to improve myself and part of this is sticking to my daily calories. This morning my coworker brought me Jack in the Box for breakfast. I told him thank you but I didn't eat it. Next, my husband called me to see if I wanted to attend a 5 course Irish dinner cooking class (this included a beer sampler with each course) tonight. I declined and instead he's going with his dad! So many temptations today, but I have to power through. I am also finding out that everything works itself out. :happy:

    Well done to you - it's hard sometimes to say "no" but just focus on your goals. Like the poster above said - don't forget you can still treat yourself once in a while!

    Building up the willpower to say no when all you want to say is yes is hard stuff so congrats on your day! Baby steps. I do agree with the other posters though, gotta treat your self once in a while. My treat tonight for doing so well this week with the gym and my food choices is a nice steak dinner. Can't wait!
  • Great job keeping your eye on the prize!
