Eating lunch in the break room, minding my own business, my supervisor came in with tons of leftovers from an BBQ the night before! Ack, here is where another of my real issues come into play...willpower. I had just eaten my small portion of shepherd's pie leftovers, and had some FF yogurt in the fridge for later, so I was perfectly happy with my lot at that point. But could I resist a brownie and some pasta salad? NO! Well, I probably could have, but I didn't really try. The good news, I got a smaller brownie and portion of pasta salad than I normally would have.
I am going to be finding myself in this situation a lot, especially with cookouts and some upcoming trips, so willpower is something I am going to have to work on.
The result...7 points over yesterday! I still have 25 weekly points left though, so unless something else happens to derail my progress, I should still be able to get my treat on saturday :)

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog - congrats on your efforts so far! I started WW at the beginning of March and I've loved it so far. My goal is also around 30 lbs and I've lost a little over 20 so far, so it's worked pretty well for me.
I feel ya on the work temptation - my work is having a full-out BBQ lunch complete with pig on the grill today and I'm over here sticking with my rice and veggies :-)
You're welcome to check out my blog if you like - unfatisfaction.blogspot.com (it's supposed to be mine and my husbands but he pretty much never posts).
Good Luck!
Mary
Work meals are the worst! I used to work in a building where a lot of functions took place, and we got emailed whenever there were any leftovers. Ugh. It was so hard! I kept my desk stocked with Fiber One bars, cans of soup, fat free hot cocoa, etc, so that I always had something else to treat myself to if I needed it. Not to say I never got a free cookie though. They are just too hard to resist sometimes!
