Today for a snack I grabbed a cucumber rather than the candy bar I wanted.


That is all. I may add to this thread so I can see the positive progress I make. feel free to add your own.

Congrats Aiesline! Today I put a bit of salsa on my salad as dressing instead of the extremely high-cal blue cheese dressing that I really wanted.

good job! I turned down White Castle for dinner the other night- didn't have a single one!

I was at the grocery wanted to buy a mini ben n jerrys(because I had some extra calories today) then I looked at at package and passed it up because it was 250 calories for such a small amount instead I am going to have an instant iced latte with milk for 150 calories.
I like this thread keep up the good work ladies!

Today, I mashed up partially frozen strawberries with a fork, added a packet of Splenda, and voila the most delicious tasting faux icecream ever. YUM. The rest of the family had coconut pie, so my strawberries were a good choice.

hehe I just imagined you eating a cucumber like a Snickers, wrapper and all.

I ate all homecooked OP food today!

YAY!!!

I was all ready to post this in the CC Easter Challenge thread but it very appropriate for here...I was SOOOOOOO good at the baseball game tonight! I brought an apple and enjoyed it with a Famous Dave's Chopped Pork BBQ sandwich. I was thinking about having a beer before going to the game but once I got there, I decided to skip it. Thought about some of the sweets there - churros, glazed nuts, cinnamon Tornadough - and skipped them all. Was chilly and almost grabbed a hot chocolate but skipped it. SOOOOOOO much temptation and in the end, I managed to eat only the thing that I had already planned for and that fit in my daily allotment.

You guys are an inspiration!

Today I grabbed a water out of my fridge instead of a diet coke. Thanks for joining me ladys

i've had 7 glasses of water already today

That's awesome!

Today, when I really wanted a 3 Musketeers bar, I grabbed my FiberOne Oats & Chocolate granola bar...saved me about 120 calories!!

Today I volunteered to walk to the Trump Tower to pick up some Cubs suite tickets for my boss. I got an extra 1,000 steps on my pedometer. And, I did it in the rain, wind & cold.

I'm craving pasta, and I just bought some shirataki noodles to make chicken pad thai with! 40 cals and 2 carbs rather than LOTS of cals and carbs!

Today, I went thru the drive thru (sorry- bad word!! Lol) to get an UNSWEETENED Iced tea (add Stevia of my own) and instead of picking up lunch there, like I REALLY REALLY wanted to, I resisted and ate the chicken, brown rice, and veggies I brought to work!
