I was in the process of getting a snack - and stopped

[Zoseph]

Man, what a great feeling! I ate almost three hours ago and I'm about to go to bed... which means it's that time of night when I normally have one last little snack, like an apple or something, even though I don't need it. Even if it's just an apple, I'm not exercising self control, and THAT'S my biggest problem.

So boom. Tonight I'm in the kitchen, thinking about what I should eat, knowing in the back of my mind that I shouldn't, and then I don't. That thought in the back of my mind should have been in the front of my mind, so I put it there. And listened. And walked away. Now I feel awesome about my decision. I've been making great ones in the past week or so, and I'm really hoping that they can continue. Last time I had this kind of mindset I lost 10 pounds

That's great!!! Keep those thoughts in the front of your mind and let your will-power take control. You know you'll be glad you did.

[FatToFitWife]

Awesome! I know how hard that can be so I really congratulate you!!

[TawnyaInControl]

Niiice! Way to lead those who aren't quite where you are, which is myself. LOL Keep it up, I need the positive energy.

[Zoseph]

Aw thanks everyone! It's still a pretty constant struggle, like right now for example. But seeing your comment, Tawnya, has set me straight!

Control is always good in that situation. Last night husband and I ate badly and then later had a snack of granola bars Today is a new day!!!! Control is here!....


Yes, I'm odd.
