My son's birthday was at Chuck E. Cheese this year. Even though he's getting older he still wants to be a kid right now and thankfully isn't embarrassed of his Mommy yet.
Of course there was pizza...
And cake...
But, you know what?
I didn't eat any of it!!!!
Yay me!!!
I ate a good breakfast before we left and had a sugar free mocha for 4 pts too.
At the party I felt like I had to be "on" and that everyone and everything was taken care of.
My husband noticed that I wasn't eating any of it and leaned over and whispered in my ear "it's not really any good any way".
"Good!" I thought. I don't want to waste my points on crummy pizza anyway!
I came home and ate a piece of Nancy's frittata that I had made for 6 pts.
And it was delicious and I didn't feel deprived and I didn't feel shamed or sorry or bloated.
And it was such a nice feeling.
Some people shoot for getting blue dots(days you stay within your points) all month long or at least for one day.
I celebrate each and every moment and every meal at which I make a good choice because it's one meal and one moment at a time for me.
And today, in this moment I was victorious!
I give myself credit for doing something that supports my goals and the healthy lifestyle I enjoy.
Today I honored my body temple and it felt good in mind, body and soul.
That's a NSV(non-scale victory)!!!!
