small victories
On our best behavior, we are passing up opportunities to be "bad" every day. Let's celebrate our small victories. What delicious treat to you pass up even though it killed you? You have bragging rights- let's celebrate small victories. We are awesome!
Dinner party at my moms, I passed up a brocolli cheese pizza roll, alfredo, mashed potatoes, choc chip cookies and "too much chocolate cake" made with devils food, pudding mix and melted choc frosting on top. I sacrificed all of this, and probably looked rude, for baking my own bean enchilada in a whole weat tortilla. It sucked, I drooled over others food but... Go me.
yesterday at work we had some chocolate chip cookie bars that are my favorite. There were three left so I convinced three of my coworkers to eat them by telling them I was going to throw them out otherwise. It worked!
last week, we had a little reception at work in honor of those people celebrating anniversaries at the company (5yrs, 10yrs, 20yrs, ect), and our manager treated us to not one, but TWO different kinds of oh-so-delicious cakes. they looked absolutely amazing, and there was enough for everybody to have a piece of each! while most of my co-workers were scarfing down their two pieces, i was able to sustain my composure and walk away from both cakes!! and to my surprise, it didn't kill me!! lol. yay me! :) and yay to the both of you too!! :)
