Don't Eat The Cake Kelia Mae

Apparently I am more ready for this lifestyle change than I realized. So last night, I kept wanting to cheat. It was my birthday and I kept telling myself that it wouldn't make that big of a deal. So I wanted a milkshake or ice cream, really I wanted cake because thats my thing on my birthday(an unresolved issue from childhood, and another story) anywhoo, I said I would be ok to all who asked, but secretly I was planning to Celebrate with 1 of my cravings. Well I am happy to say that I didn't. My dinner and dessert last night consisted of 2 scoops of muscle milk Protein Powder, ice and Water with two strawberries blended to make a smoothie. Then watched law and order ( another addiction) and to bed. Im so proud of myself and I truly feel this is the right path for me. I know that it won't be easy, but I can do this! Btw, today is day # 4 on liquids and I am down 6lbs! Now I will say there is no cake that taste that good : ).

That is awesome!! It is really hard with all the temptations out there. We just have to remember we are human and its not like we can never eat our favorite things again we just will be doing it in moderation. I don't like The word cheating because say I eat one chicken nugget that's better then the 20 I use to eat.
