Had a victorious time at the soup kitchen last night. And I was worried about eating the awesome desserts...well, irony of ironies, when I was put to work, my first assigned task was cutting the decadent chocolate cakes and strawberry cakes and arranging the assorted donuts and pastries on the dessert cart!!! How amazing! In my OLD DAYS, I would have eaten one piece of chocolate cake...one piece of strawberry cake and one cream donut, maybe two...thinking, that this is a one time thing and I will deal with it tomorrow!! But last night, as I cut the cakes with another volunteer, watching her lick her finger after cutting, I RAN to the sink to wash my hands to avoid all temptation. I just LOVE chocolate icing, omgosh!!!
So, today is day one of week three and I am armed for success. I believe the key to succeeding at this is adjusting what we are content with and willing to sacrifice a little to get results. Today, getting on the scale and viewing my stats, I am so happy I did not eat that chocolate cake. I traded my fleeting moment of chocolate bliss for permanent victory!!!
Hope all my buddies are having a good day!!! We have beautiful snow on the ground in upstate NY, gray skies, and a brisk temperature outside. I love this weather. I am on my way to church with hubby!!!

< I traded my fleeting moment of chocolate bliss for permanent victory!!! > I LOVE IT!! Way to go! I said a prayer for you last night asking the Lord to help you overcome the temptations of the dreaded "dessert cart". I think it's so neat that He had you cutting the pretties for it to show you how strong and victorious you really are. HIGH FIVES comin' your way! :D

Way to go, great mindset. I havn't cheated for 4 months, although loss has been slow at times, last night I sat eating dinner with DF's snacks on the table in front of me. I thought about how others I know have cheated, then gone on to lose, and I stared at the chocolate wafers, even checked out the carb count, 3 for one tiny piece. Two nights before I got as close as smelling it, but didnt smell great. So, I put the tin down, pushed it away, ate my pork and asparagus and this morning, the scale moved down a little!
I love your stats, I really want that scale, just bummed I spent more for my Tanita and it isnt even that much better then the one I was using. I was just frustrated with the fat % fluctuation over 5% and ordered the Tanita, now I wish I had waited!!
