Yep, today is my sons 5th birthday and i made him a cake. Now, normally i would be licking my fingers,the spoon and the bowl while making the cake. Well NOT TODAY...i even threw out what little bit was left over All i kept thinking about was my goal weight and how badly i want to reach it.

So...i told that cake where to go

lol! Good for you!!

Well done Amelia!!!
You are taking back your power. Keep up the good work.

Good job!

very good! i am always proud of myself when i say "no" to little bits of temptation. it feels a lot better than giving in!

Thanks guys, its the little victories right now that count for me. I have been struggling for a while now.

Congrats!
My husband's birthday was last week and I bought him a single slice of grocery store cake instead of the usual 3 layer homemade one. It felt kind of odd, but it's a tradition I can get used to.

Very good, Amanda!!! Someone made chocolate on chocolate cake and brought it to work today. I simply pass by it everytime I go to the kitchen, onto my healthy food and snacks!!!

happy birthday to your little guy! My daughter will be 17 May 17th~may babies are so sweet But spoiled~LOL
