So I offered to bake my office my famous homemade chocolate chip cookies, that was of course, before I knew I was taking my mom and boyfriend to BJs sports bar for dinner earlier in the evening. For those of you who know BJ's you know they're famous for their "Pizzokies", skillet baked cookies with a heaping scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce. I however was very good! No cheating at all. For dinner I ordered a few of their small plate items since BJs is known for their carb and fried overloaded food.
1 Sashimi Tuna
1 Mozzarella and Tomato Capressi salad
1 Meatball (6-8 meatballs in marinara sauce with melted cheese)
4 Tall glasses of ice water
When the dessert of brownie pizzokie came by I didn't even look at it! Then I came home and preceded to make 7 dozen of my famous homemade chocolate chip cookies. This is the FIRST time in history that I have EVER made chocolate chip cookies and NOT eaten the dough OR ANY cookies whatsoever! IN MY ENTIRE 25 YEAR EXISTENCE PEOPLE! I didn't even lick the blender of that delicious buttery sugary mix that's sure to cause diabetes.
I'm at 16 days of 30.
I can feel that my stomach has shrunk, like inside because I'm not nearly as hungry as I normally am. Yesterday I went for a 10 minute jog and about 20 minutes on the elliptical and then did about 15 minutes of core before I petered out and had to start my homework. I'm sore today, but it feels good. I can tell I'm loosing weight "all over" not just in one particular region of my body. So I'm going to keep it up. Looking forward to the end results.
I go through days where I think this is really a lot easier than I expected and I could probably make this a lifestyle if I allowed myself some wiggle room during social occasions and what not, then other days I feel like I'm going to cave and just order the burrito from Chipotle.
Then I remember I have my readers, and you're what holds me accountable in addition to myself. I can do this... Mind over matter.
