Try sparkling water! I've actually been really successful with stopping drinking water with it. Plain sparkling water with slices of lemon - very cold

Always good to meet a fellow witch, Sara! Have you dropped by the Paganchicks subfolder, lately? It's down in Alternachicks.

I've never been much of a one for sparkling water. It just doesn't taste good to me. But I've heard it's good for some people. Also, if you want a sweeter alternative to water that isn't soda, try tossing in some frozen strawberry chunks or frozen raspberries into a glass of water.

OK I obviously have a growing cookie issue because today I ate cookies for lunch AGAIN. I was in class, it was 1:30 PM and I was getting really hungry, and my prof passed around these amazing cookies to celebrate the holidays. I had 2 and they were NOT mini cookies by far! Of course I have get the NICE profs, what a hardship.

So after class I bought some veggies from a salad bar and there's my lunch. Not great but I guess the calories won't be too bad since I skipped eating anything else. The next challenge: my work's Christmas party is at 5:30 and it's catered. The gods are just setting me up today!!

Think of it as a willpower challenge. You can do it! Decide beforehand how much you can eat - budget for it - and then enjoy what you do have!

I rocked that party. I got out of there without eating any desert except fruit, and my dinner was reasonably healthy and a decent portion size. I'm quite surprised that I survived that!

Well done! Congratulations!

And I have a victory to report too. I had to pull an all-nighter last night, I only slept two hours. When I finished my assignments and turned them in, I was really tempted to stop by 7-11 for a "reward". But I stopped myself and reminded myself that that's not really a reward, since I will feel bad for it and end up paying for it later. So instead, I just basked in the feeling of being DONE with these assignments, and that was my reward. I'm proud of myself.
