Well I am feeling particularly good about my food choices this evening. Today I arrived in Hawaii with my family. I was very hungry by the time we went out to dinner having not eaten much today. First I sat through the family eating multiple pieces of fresh focaccia bread with olive oil *drool* and then even sat through them eating homemade ice cream sandwiches. I didn't even take one bite!

I thought it would be fun if we all got to brag about choices we're feeling good about, or just whatever we want to brag about!

Good for you! We spend more than enough time feeling guilty and defeated. You should feel proud. Bread and olive oil....you are a strong girl, way to go!

Okay, my brag....it's a tiny one but for me it's a step in the right direction. Yesterday I finally tracked my calories all day for the first time in weeks. I was still over on my daily intake, but the point was to journal them and get back on track. I'll try to get down to a lower caloric intake over the next few days. But just accomplishing this first step was the biggie for me.

Hiya First of all, major *hugs* for making good choices for yourself and also, great thread. Mine would be that even though I started my period yesterday (3 days early) the only dessert I had was two squares of 70% cocoa dark Belgian chocolate. The calories were less than if I'd had another dessert and it was satisfying to not only my sweet tooth, but also my ovaries :P I also made really good choices yesterday and stayed under my calories for the day.
