    I got lunch from a little cafe today (sandwich & chips) and they always give you a cookie with it. Sometimes choc chip, sometimes sugar or whatever..

    Today it was a tasty sugar cookie (very soft) with cinnamon on top. I am pleased with myself that I was able to resist the temptation and only take 2 small bites of it before tossing it in the trash!

    I have started jogging again and am much more dedicated to losing weight and becoming healthier. I love sugar, so this was a challenge, but I'm proud that I didn't give in.

    Hopefully these small changes will add up to big results within the next couple of months.

    Good for you! 

    Sugar is such a constant battle. If I go a week without having much, I'm fine and don't crave it. But giving in (more than a few bites) means that I think about it more and more. 

    Stay strong - it must be a good feeling to know your willpower is high!

    Kudos! I probably would have eaten the cookie and chips and thrown the sandwich in the trash - you are so much stronger than I am!

    Good for you!  I would have devoured that cookie, the gone back and ordered another one! 

    The other day, I literally had to pour nasty sauce on my food to keep me from finishing it!  No will power, I tell ya!

    Oooo we have those delicious cookies here. I don't know why the cafeteria can make a crap-tastic piece of chicken but a delicious cookie.

    Thanks EVERYONE!

    @ JustLike - Your avatar cracks me up! Cupcakes are my ultimate demise.. if they were giving out cupcakes, I don't know if it would have ended up in the trash lol.

    @ lilyfaith - YES. It is SO great to know that I am REALLY trying now. Not just half-heartedly saying that I'm getting back on the wagon but actually doing it. I have a lot more energy too from the workouts! Running is the best workout ever :)

    @ Goldilocks - the sandwich was awesome! It was just a basic  ham & swiss on wheat bread but it was incredible. Much more filling than a cookie by itself!

    @ Candy Nee - that is HILARIOUS about pouring nasty sauce on your food to keep from eating it! I totally understand that though because my alternative to that is to toss it in the trash before I can stick it back in my mouth!

    @ lampshade - Mini-turtles?! OMG....so so good...

    @ ejs - "crap-tastic" LOL. Yeah.. some cafeterias are really hit-and-miss. It's like they used grandma's recipe for one thing and swanson frozen food for the other..

    Or copious amounts of mystery meat, Sysco buns, fat, and grease. Ours is notoriously bad.
