This is going to sound weird but I was craving a diet Dr.Pepper so bad but I didn't have one. Diet Dr.Pepper or any other diet drink always makes me so hungry and usually for sweets, so it's not the diet Dr.Pepper, it's everything that follows that I am proud I avoided today.0

I avoided Krispy Kreme doughnuts!!!0

Oh man, I avoided the store-made sugar cookies! They are right in your face the minute you walk in, and though I glanced longingly at them I proceeded forward to the produce lol.0

My workplace cafeteria has a glorious looking dessert station near the registers. It's always full of fancy restaurant quality desserts (macarons, caneles, profiteroles, cheesecakes, fruit tarts, mousses, panna cotta, 5 layer cakes) and they're all less than $4.
I cave occasionally and grab one of the smaller $1 treats, but even though I was stressed out today, I walked on by. They also keep free apples by the registers, so I grabbed one of those instead. And didn't eat it after all...it's still on my desk.0 -
Snickers bar. It would have probably made me sick since I haven't had one in so long....... like a cigarette.0

A guy at work brought in homemade carrot cake, sausage rolls and chicken tikka wraps today. I didn't have any and I love carrot cake! This is the second time in a week I have resisted, feeling proud!!0

My youngest is potty training and the hubs brought home some gourmet jellybeans. I've been handing them out, and not eating any. It's a small victory, but I'll claim it!0

The boyfriend has a box of special toaster strudels (boston creme flavor) in the freezer. They have been taunting me all day BUT I have not eaten one!!
ETA: they don't even sound that good but just having them here is killing me for some reason.0 -
My boss bought everyone in the office meat lovers pizza...Over 30 boxes of pizza and the entire 25000sqft building resonated with the delicious aroma of melted cheese and lightly toasted dough.
...Yet I ate plain chicken breasts instead...0 -
This morning a co-worker brought in donuts, and another co-worker made a cake a brought it in.... AND today my office celebrated the July birthdays and I skipped the ice cream and cake for that as well (by the way, MY birthday is in July so it was my own bday cake I skipped)!! I skipped it all and have a Zumba class tonight. Yay me!0

Wracks . . . good for you! I dont know if I could have done that!
I resisted the temptation of pizza today myself. Feeling good about it which means I am one step closer to my goal.0 -
It's one of my cycling days, 30 miles round trip on my road bike on a route with some fairly vicious hills. Have usually used training days as an excuse for eating a shedload more than I normally would, but I've stayed sensible today and resisted the urge to pig out.0

Now THAT is will power! Good job!!! :drinker:0 -
A cookie! Ohhh maaan I wanted that cookie so bad. I was staring at it as my left eye twitched. My fingers were twitching. A bead of sweat rolled down my face.
But I got the fruit cup instead.
It was an intense moment. I guess you had to be there.
Lol i feel you! Good job!! :happy:0 -
I wasn't tempted by any particular treat today (aside from eating lunch in a restaurant and making a firm decision to order a salad instead of the fettuccini), but I do usually keep track of the treats I successfully avoid in my hand-written health journal.
That way, if I haven't lost anything on the scale at the end of the week I can still read the journal and know that on Tuesday I totally avoided the chocolate-chip banana bread , and on Thursday I ran the other way when I saw my co-worker's birthday cake in the staff room. So, in a way, I "lost" the weight of those treats by never gaining it in the first place.
Er, does that make sense?0 -
I craved chocolate a a full-sugar bottle of Coke last night, and was all set to walk up to the corner store and get them. I stayed home and had some fresh cherries, instead.
I craved the same things, today, and resisted. I had a Diet Dr Pepper (which I have planned with my ED counsellor to ween off of, over the next while), plus some more cherries.0 -
We had a chili cook off today at work. They brought in four different chilies, sour cream, cheese, onions, cornbread, fritos, tortilla chips, pumpkin rolls, sugar cookies and cake. The chili was cooking all day in the office and the aroma filled the office. I decided to eat my lunch , baked salmon, before everyone else dug into the chili. I'm happy to say that I did not have any of that, not even a little taste.0

A few days ago I turned 24, and I politely told my mother not to get me a birthday cake this year. She respected my wishes, but sadly no cake meant no song
Haha!
