So, the property manager's at my work wanted to show their appreciation to all their tenants by sending around a dessert cart to every employee in the building. It's supposedly really good, and it smelled REALLY good, and I was soooooooo hungry... but I didn't even look at it.

Said no to getting on the scale except for once this morning. Trying to do it once daily instead of every time I go in there. Getting better. Just got the scale back from DH hiding place. Trying out my willpower these days.

Oh my gosh, it's been so tough the past few days. With a bunch of friends around I've said no to ice cream once, a milkshake (a thousand calorie milkshake!) once, and Starbucks twice.
As for things I've refused myself and haven't actually been offered, I've said no to the ice cream in the fridge, potato chips, and ordering pizza. Not bad so far!

I didn't say no to anything in particular, but I had such an exciting moment yesterday! I was *very* hungry after I got in from my flight and I knew I wouldn't get home to eat until 8 and I had no money for fast food or anything. I was TERRIFIED of bingeing! Like terrified. I ate a few pretzels in the car to stave off hunger(not the healthiest, but I tried) and had a nice dinner of baked chicken and broccoli which filled me right up! As I was laying in bed, I realized I was in my PRIME bingeing time and I didn't even care. I had NO urge to binge or even eat anything! I was laying in bed about to sleep I even tested myself, thinking about all the binge foods I like. Nothing. No cravings. It might not seem huge, but I am super excited! Even better than resisting cravings is not having any at all!
Sorry I wrote a novel lol...

Last night
I said no to having another late night snack. I was within my calories of 1200-1300 per day around 10 and I really wanted to have another 200 calories of sweetness. I told myself that it wasn't worth it and that NO, I had not reached my goal yet (sometimes when I want to snack, I tell myself something like, 'You've already lost so much weight, reward yourself...relax.'). I was proud of myself, although I wish the scale would have rewarded me this morning. Up 1.5 pounds from my lowest.
Today I'm going to focus on drinking lots of water.
Tomorrow is going to be tough. We are having a goodbye party for an old staff member and there is a potluck. I usually take those days off and enjoy the food, but I haven't been 'good' for that many days yet consecutively. I don't really feel like I deserve the reward of a meal off yet. And, sadly, having the potluck snacks in moderation isn't what tempts me. It's the eating it with no limits.

Whole Foods here, too!
Today I passed up avocado rolls from Whole Foods. I know they're not bad for you or anything -- and I get them made with brown rice -- but it just wasn't part of the plan. I'm trying to stick to what I am packing from home and only buying the things that I need to complete my lunch.

I am really proud! I just took a handful (8 of them) Hershey's Kisses instinctively out of a co-worker's candy dish. I realized what I had done after I had eaten 3 of them, so I ate 1 more and put the remaining 4 back in the dish! Honestly, that feels like a huge victory for me. Very proud of myself for putting the rest back!!!

I am saying no to every snack in the kitchen right now. I ate some sunflower seeds, made my mouth really salty, didn't like that. So I drank some cranberry juice. Didn't much help ... ate some oyster crackers and drank a bottle of water. The scale will surely hate me in the a.m. ... should've said NO a little louder
