said NO to sharing any of my bf's frozen dinner. Was originally planning on sharing, didn't think it would be so bad but looked at the calories (860!!!) and the fat (50G) and said... NO thank you. Had a fiber bar instead. =p
yesterday a friend came over, and we went to the gas station to get snacks, but i limited myself to one small box of snack food instead of, for example, buying a whole bag of chips. sure, it was still 400 calories of candy, but i budgeted for it and that's a lot better than what i used to do!
I said No last night to pizza. My younger sister was having a huge high school after dance party with 25 kids over (not exaggerating at all, the house was PACKED!) and pizza was everywhere. I only had a protein shake for lunch and was starving. I grabbed a Chobani blueberry greek yogurt and some fresh blueberries. I'm absolutely addicted to greek yogurt. I think it's my lifesaver when I need something to fill me up immediately and I'm trying so hard not to hit the junk food, plus it has the protein I want.
I said no to the rest of the can of artichokes. I would normally eat the whole can, but these were NASTY! I have eaten nasty food to keep it from the garbage before, but NOT today!
My roommate brought home Cinnabon today to celebrate quitting her job (she's a full-time student, the job was very stressful, she was miserable all the time etc). I took a deep breath, cut the cinnamon bun into 4 pieces, and just had one piece. I'm worried, because there are still cinnamon buns lurking in the kitchen.... I have to continue to say NO.
Today I said no to fast food. I had to run an errand on my lunch hour and I was starving . . . I chewed a piece of gum and that helped hold off my hunger until I got back to the office and could eat my WW Smart One meal - I passed several fast food places - one of which was Sonic, which currently has an amazing "limited time only" shake (sweetheart shake - cherry vanilla and dark chocolate) that I quickly got addicted to last month and haven't had in two weeks now.
So, I ate my healthy lunch and then had a "cherry vanilla" light and fit yogurt.
I said no to a breakfast burrito today. I was really fiending for one, but there are sooo many things in the burrito that I am avoiding eating right now, so, I decided to just try and ignore those cravings as best as possible.
I am glad I did because I have already eaten lunch, am still below my 1200 calorie limit, and didn't binge on the foods I am not supposed to eat. Yay!
I said no to a co-worker trying to share her girl scout cookies with me. The thin mints are only 1pt each (ww), but I knew I'd end up having 5 or 6, so I said no!
