I'm so proud of myself. Currently at work, we had food in the kitchen and I got some (about a cup) of blackberry cobbler. When back to my office to log it in my food journal just to see that it summed up to 380 calories! Took one bite and then threw it away.

If I could only have this will-power every day... :)

    Way to go! I did that with my french fries the other day from McDonald's, just didn't think they were worth the calories!

    Great job, great will power. I have what I like but I naturally have found better food choices to give me more food. Bad foods have to many calories and leave you hungry.

    Good Job - Thats a lot of calories for a moments pleasure. I remember when I had a company lunch meeting and they ordered all kinds of pizza's. I requested a grilled chicken salad w/lite dressing. As we were eating most of the people said my salad look really good and it made them feel guilty for eating the pizza. Most of the people in the meeting were women and were attempting the eat better for there new years resolution. It made me feel good that I was the only one sticking to it.

    I bet that 380 sucked the appetite right out of you. Nicely done.

    That is great. I know it is hard to not eat things that we enjoy, but that is the first thing to a lifestyle change. Keep up the good work. I am proud of you!!!
