I made it through another day without chocolate. I was working all day but, the temptation was offered to me by a friend that was having lunch with me.

Another driver and I were out on a field trip together and we had lunch together. Well, she buys this really great fancy chocolate from Trader Joes market and offers some. I turned it down without a problem. The problem comes in when this very sweet, well meaning person says....."Oh come on, one bite won't hurt" ...She is aware of what I have been trying to accomplish the last two years and still tries to tempt me.

I'm ok with this, but for the moment I really felt annoyed and depribed that I had to say no so many times. If people could just accept "NO" the first time it is said it would be so much easier. I mean, I wish I could be like everybody else...Like her and her daughter (that was there) thin and normal and not have to think about everything I eat, but I do. Just like that first drink.....I can't take that first bite. NO, bites!!!!
