A temptation of an evening!

Hello all!

Ok I am reeeeeally feeling the effects of cutting out my daily splurges. I am so fortunate to have a great support system at Evolution Fitness and with my friends and especially my wonderful boyfriend Michael. He has taken on the healthy diet challenge with me and I am so glad because I would have cheated 100 times if he hadn't.

If you knew my mother you would know that our pantry is a serious diet death trap! Recees, chocolate, M&Ms, Snickers, Kit Kats, a freezer full of 10 varieties of ice cream (and yes I am currently drooling just thinking about it). It is so hard to go in to grab a can of no salt added corn and skip past the yummy yummy bag of marshmallows.

But I did it! And the even bigger challenge was at a fund raising event for Bridget Fleming. Michael is the finance director for her campaign, and absolutely brilliant at it. The event had gorgeous looking sandwiches full of cheese, dressing, and carbs. They had these little egg rolls with a sweet and sour dipping sauce, and chocolate dipped shortbread cookies.

And guess how much of it I ate?

NONE!! Woo hoo!!! I know that eventually when I am back on track and in shape I can have little splurges here and there. But for now I have to be strict because I am bad at having just one snack. I end up eating the whole box of Oreos (Which is what got me here!).

But I did it, I did not do a great job working out, but again it was a lovely eating day. Back to the gym tomorrow!
