I THREW THE CHOCOLATE AWAY!

I got some stressful news today and my first instinct was to go to sugar. I wanted sugar more than ANYTHING. I went in the cabinet and grabbed some chocolate. After half a bite I STOPPED.....threw it away....and grabbed a protein cereal bar instead.

Beautiful.

And you didn't want sugar more than anything. You wanted sugar a lot, but you wanted to be in control of your food even more. You didn't want food to be in control of you today.

How do you feel now?

Nicely done, Katie... now if you can do that consistently, you'll form a new, productive habit that will serve you well throughout the rest of your life! Now if only I could do the same....
