Survived the weekend!

I posted yesterday at how I saw temptation everywhere food wise, yesterday especially. And I really really did. Everything I saw, I wanted. My dad bought some haribo and chocolate white mice to take to a friends house for their kids today and I found myself looking at them thinking, well I could just eat a few, knowing full well that it wouldn't stop there, and then buy a new bag. But I thought no, I won't in case I don't replace them in time. Then I popped to Tesco for a few bits and found myself looking at the calories on all of the packs of sweets there weighing them up but they were still all too high and somehow I found the will power to put them down. Then I did the same with trifle. And a doughnut. And pancakes. And about a million other things. The important thing here though is that I looked at the calories, didn't just put it in my basket, then made the informed decision about them. Somehow that decision was always no!

Something in me really has changed because I don't think that 5 weeks into calorie counting I've ever managed to stay this focused, determined and motivated or had this much willpower before! I'm not complaining of course, just don't know why! Jumped on the scales this morning and they read at 18st 12.5lbs, 0.75lbs down on yesterday so all the reassurance that I need to know I did the right thing yesterday avoiding the chips and other baddies!
