Tonight, I stopped myself. I came back from work, ate an okay dinner and then I moved on to the dessert. I grabbed a yogurt and an orange, the usual. And then my mind started racing. Peanut butter and oreos. Caramel on toast with rainbow sprinkles. Chocolate. Anything I can find. I wanted it. I walked over to the sweets cupboard, put my hand on the cookie box and I stopped. For the first time this summer, I stopped myself.

What do I want more? This weight loss or 4 oreos & a whole lot of guilt?

I stood there for a while, thinking. I so wanted the sweets, but I put them back. I know better. I know what to do.

So, as small as it is for probably most of you, this is a really big accomplishment for me and right now, I am super happy.
