Will Power for Today

Today was my last day of vacation. It is back to work tomorrow. I hate the thought of setting that alarm clock, but will be glad to get back into my routine on eating on a schedule, eating exactly what is planned and brought to work. Not have the pantry and fridge beckoning me to come. I also usually manage to get in 10,000 steps in each day at work as a nurse. It is not really aerobic, but I do get lots of steps in. I did my meal prep for the week and made some of my easy go-to things.

My daughter came home from school and decided to make home made chocolate chip cookies for a friend at school. I had to really use some will power to resist. It smelled SOoooo good. I put it on facebook as a status and got lots of words of encouragement and my WW buddy commented that if I ate one to remember to track it. I put it in the app and 2 cookies was 7 points. Just not worth it for an afternoon snack sitting in my sweat pants watching Law and Order on TV.....so I did what I thought was a smart thing. I went and brushed my teeth. I am one of those people who can't stand to eat after brushing their teeth. Something about that mint.
