One small step for the Rebellion, one giant leap for me!

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!

Haha nice going! Cookies are tough to resist! Good call on not resisting the wine though, some things are NOT worth sacrificing.
