One of the head hunger issues that really haunts me is using food as a reward.

Yesterday, I planted my butt on a bicycle seat for almost 3.5 hours and burned 2200 calories and I finished up the day with over a 1000 calories that I didn't eat.

Once a week, I take my two girls for fresh donuts in the morning before I drop them off at school and this was the morning. As we approached the little voices in my head kept singing, you were good, you exercised, you deserve a donut over and over again. As my girls picked out their donuts I could literally taste them in my mind, but finally I stopped and said, NO, what I deserve is to be thin, turned and walked away with my daughters to pay for their donuts.

Today, YOU deserve to be thin, don't settle for anything less that what is rightfully yours.

Way to go! It is sometimes hard not to listen to those little demons in our heads, but what a great victory when we can shut them out.

There's a saying, nothing tastes as good as thin feels and it's true! Great NSV!

These temptations and voices can be soo convincing! What a great achievement to say no and walk away!

I try to picture that cake, cookie or bread just swelling up in my throat. It really helps take that desire away. I just smell it ,good enough for me.
