I had to share a day of success under usually tempting food circumstances. Today I had a day to myself to relax, and normally I would end up feeling like I wanted to "reward" myself for a long week (plug in any reason). Instead, I spent time in Whole foods, my favorite grocery store, looking for new healthy ideas for healthy cooking instead of looking for sweets and treats. The whole day, I didn't eat one single cookie, baked good, or comfort food. This is a HUGE accomplishment for me! I can't remember the last time I was able to avoid temptation and keep my mind focused on making healthy decisions.

I still have ways to go, but man what a great success today was!

    Oh man, me too - I LOVE baked goods and sweets of any kind. It was hard to resist their bakery case, but I did it!

    WTG on your diet soda!

    Yay - good on you! I was pleased for a similar reason when I attended a birthday party BBQ today. I didn't go nuts, and have entered my food since returning home and am still under for calories. Normally, I reckon I would have eaten at least twice as much as an event like that with so many temptations (blush). It's great because I don't feel like I was really deprived either, and no-one else would have noticed (I still had something from main and dessert, but just made wiser-than-usual choices).
