Fighting temptation

I know this isn't a journal about weight loss but I want to tell my success story for last night!

{The Hubby} and I went out on a date last night (It was wonderful-Since having {E.G.} we don't get date nights as nearly as we would like) and then to his sisters for games with a few friends afterwords. Usually I probably would have caved and eaten something unhealthy. We went to a movie theater and before hand I was torn between Chick File or Subway for lunch. I easily chose a kids meal subway with turkey, only veggies and honey mustard on wheat bread of course, (NO MAYO) a side of apples and 100% fruit juice box ! I was very proud of myself and to be honest-the decision was easy.

Then after the movie I knew we were going to be having pizza a little later at my sister in loves house. After hearing me complain about wanting to eat it {The Hubby} gave me a pep talk about fitting into my bathing suit for the summer and getting a new pair of jeans from the buckle! He knows thats my motivation! It was exactly what I needed. He then went and bought me a Jamba Juice to eat at my sister in laws so I was not tempted. Instead while there I ate only the Salad (even though they had my favorite pizza, Canadian Bacon and Pineapple.) What I thought was my big temptation of Pizza was a sinch when they pulled out the candy! Oh how I love the sweets...especially candy! But I withstood and can definately say I am so glad I did!

p.s. The shirt I wore for my date was the one I was wearing the day I found out I was Pregnant with {E.G.} and it was tight on my arms! Yesterday it was loose on them! It was a great feeling!

Have you withstood any temptation lately or been successful in some form in your goals of being healthy or looseing weight? I would love to hear about it!
