I've been seriously craving pizza for a few days. On top of that, I returned to work on 8/1 after being off on disability for 4 1/2 months. The combination, being tired and having cravings, were their strongest tonight. I didn't want to go to the gym, I just wanted to eat PIZZA and go to sleep. Instead, I made deal with myself to "eat on plan and work out and if I still wanted pizza, I'd order it."

Well, I walked and drank almost 1L of water and came home and DID NOT EAT PIZZA!!!

    That's awesome. Yesterday I was so hungry I left work to go to Publix to get something to eat. Was so tempted to stop by the deli, but settled for a box of 100 calorie microwave popcorn. :)
