So one of my coworkers just sent out an email that there's chocolate cake in the kitchen. Now, I gotta resist the urge to walk over there, and just be content with my water!

I had my second to last fitting last night and loooove the way my dress is looking on me. AND I got up early for an intense workout this morning. Trying to be strong...

Anyone else have temptation right in your face (or your work kitchen)? How are you staying strong?

My fiance is off of work all week and when I came home from a 3 mile run and lifting last night, he offered to make frozen margaritas. I pouted while I said no and filled my water bottle. Hopefully the scale will be nice to me tomorrow!

Oooh...that's tough! Do you have an unflattering picture of yourself that you can hide in your drawer? Then anytime you have that craving or temptation, you can pull it out for motivation to resist!

Good for you for working out this morning and keep thinking about how your dress fit you like a glove, and how chocolate cake wouldn't look nice all over it.

All I have done since I moved in with FI in May is GIVE IN to temptation and I've for the 8lbs to show it! So now I am trying to be strong. I put on stress weight which isnt helping since I am way stressed about no job = no money. But today is day 2 of nothing bad for me. and the scale didn't even move lol I was expecting a miracle!
