NSV, I wish it wan't like this!

[USMC Wife 1]

Today my boss calls and informs me she won't be needing me the rest of the week. Things are slow and she will see me next week. Well I only work 3 days a week and today and tomorrow were days 2 & 3. I can see the writing on the wall and know my days are limited there. So while I drove around hoping to find a bakery/resturant/grocery that needed a baker or cake decorator all I could do was think about all the food out there to be eaten. Normally I would have stopped at the first food place and eaten anything that sounded good and still have felt bad. You know what though? I DIDN'T DO IT TODAY! Nope, I drank my Water, licked my wounds and made the right choice. Today I am 3 weeks post op and so proud that I was able to mentally not let food control me but I controlled the food. I wish it was for a different reasone but a NSV is one just the same! -28lbs and counting!

Thank you! It did feel like a victory after I realized exactly what I did. Today is a new day and as far as the job...there will be another one for this pastry chef i'm sure!
