I went today without any candy bars.
I refrained from self-destructive behavior today.
ODAT!

Hey, nothing boosts your willpower like dating. If all goes well, eventually someone may get to see me nude and the question is what do I want to look like if and when that day comes!!!

Tiki - about the motivation factor Good going on ignoring all that food - that must have been tough!

Noodles - sorry but sniffing the chocolates would have made me eat them

The box of chips is still in the office but I put it up on a higher shelf so it is not at eye level which makes it much easier to ignore

Right On!!!!!!!

Way to go, Chris!!

Yesterday I managed to get the blinds in the kitchen clean!! I had to wipe down each piece of blind with mild soap and water and dry it. What a pain in the butt. But now no more dust!!

Yesterday I decided to finally give the ceiling fans their twice yearly cleaning. I have since decided that I should clean them more than twice a year now.

I first vacuumed what I could, then went through a roll of paper towels and ½ a bottle of cleanser to clean the damn things. But I got all 3 clean!! Now maybe I should use that swiffer thing more often.

Last night I came to the sad realization that the money that I spent on new back windows in my house was wasted because there is still a TON of air coming through. I had to cover them in plastic for the season. Oh yeah, the accomplishment is that I got it done and won't be spending as much money to keep the house warm.

Noodles, I thought that when you run your ceiling fan, all the dirt flies off of them. Are you saying that they are supposed to be cleaned?

Not here, Tiki. I think the dirt/dust here is it's own kind. It has fuzzy stuff attached to it after sitting for a while. It doesn't just lift off like normal dirt. Weird huh!!

That was definitely a joke, Noodles. My ceiling fan blades collect and HOLD so much dirt I could grow an herb garden on them.

You two!

Yesterday I managed to get through another day of ignoring the chips although other people in the office were eating them - they can have them

Today I walked past Tim Horton's on my way to work and ignored the lure of a Double Double (coffee with 2 cream and two sugars for you U.S. chicks) and a super fattening muffin. Instead I waited until I got into the office and had a tea and some instant oatmeal (muffin 8 points versus oatmeal 3 points) - feeling pleased with myself now

Good job Mauv!

There are Dunkin Donuts all over this place and I have been doing some staring at them, but none has passed the lips! Focus, Tiki, Focus!
