The Temptation of the Cupcake

[lovelylind]

Today Yesterday was my friend's bday, and we had a small celebration with her at Bible Study this evening. I bought the cupcakes. The kicker is: I didn't eat even one

lol!@ the title. I'm so proud of you. I really want to be where you're at. I have moments where I feel there (regarding my eating, haven't quite gotten there with my exercise in a minute). where the temptation is so minimal as to not be existent. Or even where there truly is no temptation and i'm just overlooking certain foods. I hope to be there (mentally) by at least the middle of summer if not before. But good for you!

Well, the rest of the week didn't look that good for me. I had rice like three days in a row. :-\ Not as much as I used to, but still.

> I think that now, I just determine whether it's worth it.

lol. What motivates me is that I itemize my time in terms of burning calories. So if a cupcake is 450 calories, I'll think of it as roughly 30 minutes on the elliptical. Is cupcake worth 30 minutes of my time?

That's a good thought! But I have no idea how many calories I burn during bootcamp. Maybe that's good because I'd probably try to eat more than I do.
