Small Victories!

On Saturday morning I weighed in at home, knowing that I would work a 12 hour shift all day Saturday. Saturday is usually my "free day" because it is my "weigh in" day. Anyway, I was so excited, I had lost 3 pounds and had managed to stick to my three goals for the week (Drink water, walk 3 times that week, write everything down that I ate)...
I arrived at work and in walked one of our physicians with a huge box of Krispy Kreme heart shaped donuts, plus some blueberry cake donuts (one of my favs).....I was in the middle of shoveling a spoonful of Kashi cereal into my mouth when he arrived....
I finished my cereal and busied myself with mundane task (we had a slow day)...meanwhile, I kept eyeballing that box of donuts. After an hour or so, I decided that I would eat half a donut slowly with a hot, fresh cup of coffee....I did and savored it.
So, yes, today I am celebrating the small victory that I only ate half and not 2 or 3 of them! Does any of my Weight Watcher buddies have any small victories to share from this week?

YYEEEAAAHHHH! I was afraid you had fallen off the WW wagon. I've been missing you. Unfortunately I hadn't lost even a whole pound, however, I hadn't gained either AND I did walk and or jog every day (even had to go do it at the school one day when it was raining on the covered sidewalks...I need to do better about writing down what I eat. I always think I know where I'm at as far as points, but obviously I don't....Hope this week is as super for you!

No I haven't quit, just can't roll my rump out of bed early on Saturday's when I know it's cold and my bed is so warm, complete with husband and flannel sheets :)
