Default Feathers -- What did you say "No" to today?
I stole this great idea from the Chicks in Control forum...

Today I've said no, at least 20 times in the last 5 mins to Ferrero Rocher ... There's some in the fridge calling my name... I should practice what I preach and throw them out...

Anyone else?

I said "No" to not drinking my water and to not climbing the 7 flights of stairs at work.

...we should have "Just Say No" shirts. LOL!

Well done everyone who withstood temptation!

I said NO to excess eating! the past few days I've been much closer to 1500 cals than 1200, so today I ate what I needed, not what I wanted. AND I said NO to chili-cheese fries, beer, tequilla shots, and burgers at happy hour with my bf and sis. Instead I had a house salad with grilled fish. Will of steel today!

Today I JUST SAID NO to giving up on the treadmill when it became clear that I wasn't going to be able to do my run... I had major side stitches (despite waiting 2.5 hours after eating) and 7 minutes into running, they weren't lessening... I took a quick break then hopped back on and walked as fast as I could at inclines from 5 to 10. Before I knew it, 45 minutes had passed. Yay.

Happy No Days to us all!!

Mini scones and cookies.

They have them every Friday morning at a meeting I go to, and I used to always eat one or two... but then I'd be hungry again long before lunch, and sometimes the leftovers end up right outside my lab and I'd end up eating 1 or 2 more. So I've decided to quit them until I get to goal, then I can consider whether it's worth it.

Last night I said no to eating after dinner, other than my planned snack, even though every 2 minutes I would start thinking "hey, I want to eat something" and at times it was almost painful to NOT eat anything more.

I posted there too. . .

To sum it up, yesterday I said NO to Dunkin Donuts.

Today I said NO to mindlessly eating from the Cape Cod Reduced Fat chips bag, or having more than 1 blueberry muffin.
