Weigh-In Wednesday – Week Three

Temptation. I had it twice last week. Friday night (the night of the hottest day in Australian history) The Husband and I went out for dinner with our best friends. This was the first time I’d eaten out since starting my transformation on the 7th. How did I go?

Brilliantly. I choose my meal wisely (Thai beed salad, no bread), had only one drink (a gin and tonic) and shared dessert with The Husband (chocolate ricotta tart). Never once did I feel deprived.

Sunday came with a different temptation. The Husband’s family had their regulary January Birthday Celebration (all the men in my husband’s family were born in January) and this year, the menu was pizza. Dominoes pizza, to be exact. I love pizza. Love it. But I knew if I had one slice of pizza I’d fall off the wagon. So I didn’t. On the way to my mother-in-law’s place, I made a pit stop at Subways and bought myself a roast beef and salad 6″. I enjoyed every bite of that sub. Every bite. And once again, I did not feel deprived.

To say I was proud of myself is an understatement. I’ve rediscovered my will-power. Yay!

And guess what? Come stepping on the scales, I got a lovely surprise. I’d lost over a kilo and a half. Double yay!!

Now, if only I could stop whimpering when my personal trainer makes me do inverse ab curls. *sigh*
