I made it!!

[wdwnutze]

Yesterday was dd's b-day. She requested a homemade cake(chocolate w/ choc frosting). I managed to make and frost the cake without tasting a single bit of it. Then she had a pizza party. I served all her friends and family and did not indulge in any(didin't even lick my fingers). After pizza I had to serve the cake and ice cream(again, no tasting). We then went to the movies(Freaky Friday- a great movie). I brought some pepperoni and cheese with me and a carbolite bar. When we got there I bought water. The girls each went armed with their goody bag filled with candy. I had so much temptation around me yesterday and I never caved in. I feel really good today! Now, I get to get back to the everyday stress in life! Much easier to deal with than all the party foods!

I'm so proud of you for all those temptations around you and you didn't give in at all. It took a lot of self control on your part to be able to make it through that day. I am very impressed and I know that you must be feeling very happy and healthier than if you had indulged.

GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is excellent! It's posts like yours and mum4jenn's that really make me happy! Good for you for resisting that cake and pizza, and congratulations for being smart about bringing your own snacks to the movie! Aren't you proud? You should be? You could have been a finger licking fool yesterday, and then munched out on popcorn and candy and soda at the movies, BUT YOU DIDN'T! You were in complete control and you made choices that made you happy and were healthy as well! GOOD FOR YOU!

I'm really proud of you! I'm so glad you shared this too. If you can resist a home made cake that you frosted, and pizza, and movie snacks, and mum4jenn can resist 1,000+ M&M cookies, then we can all resist our "temptations" as well!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! All those goodies are very hard to resist! You should be very proud of yourself!!!

Took my DD and her cousin to see Freaky Friday and you are right, it is really good! I ate a bag of low fat microwave popcorn before leaving home so I wouldn't be tempted by the movie theater stuff and it worked!
