StunVengeance Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Oh hello, all. I'd like to share something that I just realized this morning was a real victory. I had a friend in town earlier in this week and he crashed at my place for a little while. To thank me for being such a kind hostess, he brought some gifts, including a bottle of wine and a container of Trader Joe's Crispy Crunchy Chocolate Chip Cookies. Ok, I drank the wine. With friends. But the container of cookies has been on my kitchen table since Monday and I haven't. Eaten. A. Single. One. It's sitting right next to me right now, and I just have no desire for them at all. This is HUGE. My diet is one of the bigger barriers to my overall health. I'm from the South originally, and I looooove things that are deep-fried, filled with chocolate, covered in butter or cream, etc etc. I also bake cupcakes like it's my job (I watch Cupcake Wars for recipe ideas, not for the entertainment value), so sweets can be a weakness sometimes. So to recap: I, someone who has a weakness for yummy treats and who bakes a lot, did NOT consume a SINGLE COOKIE that is here on this table!!!!!! That's not to say that it's all a success. Hell, I ate a donut today. But it still makes me happy. (And I didn't even like the donut.) Thanks for reading! Quote Level 0 Mutant Rebel Link to comment
Nuribaby Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Haha nice going! Cookies are tough to resist! Good call on not resisting the wine though, some things are NOT worth sacrificing.
