Todays Small Victory: Ignoring the Break Room
I came into work today to find a large box of designer donuts (the ones from the fancy bakery up the street) and half of a very tempting chocoalte cake. I grabbed my coffee and walked back to my desk.
There is still cake there. But I'm trying to ignore it. I'm about to go out to my car to grab lunch and refill my water cup.
Tell me about your victory today.

Yay for donuts! in moderation : (
My small victory today is weighing less than my husband for the first time in our marriage! Hooray!
He helped a little with this victory, but I'll claim it anyways0 -

I woke up early for the first time today and went running.
UGH it was awful. Hopefully it gets better.0 -
I ignored the cake they were giving away at the grocery store. They were small pieces but I still didn't need it.0

Not eating homemade chocolate chip cookies for breakfast. I may still have one tonight if I can fit it into my calories, but I have broken the habit from the past two days of shoving a couple in my mouth while drinking my coffee.0

Good job !
That happens to me every day at work ....... I just imagine the cake or pizza or whatever crawling with bugs ...... pretty much takes away any desire to eat that item :laugh:0 -
My Victory today was logging on to MFP again after being off for way too many months.. Starting again.0

Wifey and I made two loaves of zucchini bread and one tray of muffins. We literally split one muffin, saved two for later, and gave the rest to our neighbors. That's our version of will power.0

Great Job!! It's hard but worth it. I just got back for vacation and a wedding. I went a bit crazy but today I started off with an egg and coffee and lunch will be a hearty tossed salad and chicken broth.0

Mine was a while ago, after I lost my first 20kg, I could wear my watch and wedding ring again.0

My small victory is that I have not done any middle of the night snacking in quite a while. Last night was soooo rough and coming up with enough will power to not have a late night snack is a big little victory for me.0

I'm wearing a sleeveless top for the first time in, well forever!0

Fell off the diet for a few weeks. Many stressful things going on with teenagers and I ate myself into a frenzy and gained back lost weight and thensome in a short period of time.
Got up today and decided to get back on here and start over once again. I've had oatmeal and salad today off the salad bar at work and walked about 20 minutes on my breaks. Small victory, a bit more calories from salad bar than I should have but at least it was not an order of fries and fried chicken strips or pizza like I have been doing. After the last few weeks, all the stress and staying upset, I feel good that I've gotten back on here today and read some inspiring stories of other folks victories and will hopefully get back on track.
Have a great day everyone!0 -
OP, thank you for reminding me about the cake sitting in our lunch room. i had forgotten about it :-S
today cannot be a day where i have a little cake because i had quite a bit of sugar over the weekend.0 -
I put on a shirt and some pants today. The shirt's arms were always tight on me and the pants were always really tight in the waist, thighs and butt. Shirt fits perfectly today and the pants are baggy in the butt and thighs. They aren't tight in the waist either! I could do lunges in these bad boys and not worry about ripping them to shreds.0

Today's small victory not licking the beaters after making some back to school brownies this morning! Baked them and they covered them for later this afternoon! :-)0
