I said 'NO' to a mince pie !!

Feeling pretty chuffed with myself today.

it was my kids xmas show today and there was the usual coffee & mince pies & shortbread for the parents to have...... but this year I went to the gym this morning and had a banana just before the show so that i wouldn't be tempted cos I was a bit peckish like I usually do.

I managed to say no to the many attempts of being offered one.. it feels good to have a bit of willpower for a change..

That's some going Bigmama99,

Well done to you! I've not done so well today as I've succumbed to a glass of wine : / I have been saving up all week for it though and it was in my plan for today or tomorrow, but I've had it now! So next week I'm hoping that I will resist temptation and not have one at all.

I'm so pleased no one offered me a mince pie!! Proud of you 🙂👍

thankyou.. my husband was on nights last night & also 2night so it's made it a lot easier for me as he makes it easy for me to be naughty as he goes and gets food & wine when I suggest it haha.. I wouldn't have a takeaway or wine on my own anyway but I'm not actually missing it either which is good

Enjoy your glass of wine ..you've been good all week xx

Hi Bigmama99,

Wow, that's great that you went to the gym this morning and that you staved off being peckish with that banana. Great plan! :-)

You're showing great will-power, via your pre-planning, and that's really great.

As Hidden says, Whoo Hooo!!! :-)

Please send me a big gift of willpower as I know why I'm overweight and the main reasons are weakness and a total lack of willpower.

I'm so pleased for you and hope your positive energy is contagious. x

I wish I could send u some... I'm not really sure where mine is coming from at the moment lol... I think like most of us here we all know why we are overweight but put our heads in the sand and hope it will magically disapear if we are good for a week or 2... hope u get into the zone soon and find your inner will power to get you going x
