Sweet Surprises!!

Latest vice has been donuts.  I randomly eat those things but stopped to get some Monday as I was rushing into work. Hey, I'm a simple person.  2 glazed donuts satisfies all the cravings and frankly, it hit the spot.  Actually, it was the best dang donuts I have ever eaten!! This business is amazing.  It's a clean, modernly decorated place.  They put donuts on display but you don't see the have used sheets of donuts because they go to the back to get you FRESH ones!! They are warm and the glaze has barely set....ok....so you see how easily a person could get addicted right!?!?! That being said....


Voices bantering outside the apartment at 7 a.m. isn't the best way to wake up on the last day of the weekend to sleep in! What can a girl do? So I'm staring at the ceiling and all I can think about is those stupid donuts.  Do I really have extra money to waste on a whim food item that's bad for me? Not really but they are only 75 cents.  Do I really want to get dressed and drive all the way there for that? Well I'll pull my hair back and just put on a bra. LOL Excuses led me to the donut direction.  


Not gonna lie to you; I cherished every delicate moment I had with those donuts.  Then it happened...the motivation I needed to get control of myself. Having licked my fingertips clean already I began unpacking a few keepsakes that I typically use around my apartment to make it feel a little like home.  As I'm digging through this small box, I come across a "Fat Picture" I took of myself last December.  I mean one of those "before" pictures people take to remember what they started exercising and dieting for to begin with.  I labeled the date and weight at the time and put it on my fridge while I was in Austin to remind myself not to eat out of boredom.  Well ladies and gentlemen; I have lost almost 20 lbs since that picture was taken. I didn't even realize it.  Today, I took a progress picture, went for a run and promised myself


NO MORE DONUTS.
