I passed up all sorts of good foods today at bouna beef, and had a salad, and I passed up the dressing too, and the scarey bread stick. I passed up some cake at work this week for someone's birthday. Most importantly, I passed up this craving I have been having for 2 hours (to go to white hen and get m&m's and an iced coffee - probably about 400 calories)
A stop at Kentucky Fried Chicken. It isn't a normal stop for me, but I came out of a store and the smell of it was drifting across the parking lot. I promptly got in my car, came home and got on this board! Whew!
I passed up on some Icecream Cookies at the market and decided to make a healthier version at home....Reduce Fat Graham Crackers with a dab of Reddiwhip in the middle frozen for 2 hours...YUMMO!!!
Packaged cheese noodles that my husband made to go with his dinner. My mouth was literally watering as he cooked it!
Instead, I walked away and prepared myself a romaine lettuce salad.
I'm happy to say I didn't pass up anything today! I wasn't tempted by anything, I didn't have any cravings, I ate what I like and I liked what I ate. It all just went swimmingly!
Well...none yet BUT its a Friday afternoon which means I will try my very hardest to resist the blue brie, crackers and wine.
Mmmmm....Brie!!!
I've been having a strong urge to EAT all day today, but I've managed to avoid a lot of stuff. First, at the children's film festival, I passed up the free (but calorie, fat and salt laden) popcorn. I brought a few cups of my microwave-kernels-in-a-brown-paper-bag popcorn and it was satisfying. There were others, but I think I'm proudest of that one.
I passed up a shaved ice. I really wanted one, but sort of blew my points on high, high carb pasta and two slices of Texas toast. So that, and a few little things, was pretty much all I ate today -- but SO worth it!
I passed up on a pasta dinner... and someone came in to work with McDonalds, and I managed to suffer through that with out visiting McDonalds after work.
Chocolate covered espresso beans. My SO always has a tub of them in the fridge and they call out to me every time I open the fridge. But today I resisted their siren call.
I don't know what's happening to me - usually I have the urge to eat out, pig out, binge and the healthier I get the less I feel like I'm passing up anything really - ok, except the wine. I'm limiting myself to 4 glasses per week (per the Jillian story I read who said that's what she's doing). So I did pass up the wine!
What bad food did you pass up today?
