I agree.  When your mindset changes, the temptations are gone.  I have always loved ice cream. I don't touch it anymore nor do I have a desire to.  Weird.... :-\

All these years we thought we were weak & could not stick to a diet .

 I heard something on a tv show the other day that explained how I felt everyday until I found FTS

 I started a diet every morning and by the end of the day I was a failure !!

Today our family got together for the Easter feast and I did not give in to the temptations.  I went to Subway and got
a Subway Club salad and enjoyed it while everyone else pigged out.  I do admit it was hard to resist my sisters homemade
cream filled oatmeal cookies.  I am also staying out of the banana pudding.  I really want to lose when I get on the scale in the morning.  How has everyone else done today?

We went to my inlaws for dinner after church.  They were having BQ, so I just ate pulled pork and a little  slaw. (Hopefully there wasn't sugar in the slaw.)  Anyway, I passed up the key lime cake, came home, and went right to my freezer.  I have Umpa's ice cream sandwiches stashed away, so that was my Easter treat today!   ;D

We had a pancake breakfast after our sunrise service (and before our regular service). However, MommaB brought us (the FTS crew) some of Doug's recipe for sausage/maple/muffins...It was the first time I had tried them! O M G !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so good! It was like having a McGriddle from McD's but with NO GUILT and so much more flavor. Thanks, MommaB!!!!!! : )

My daughter made Easter dinner this year I had ham, asparagus, tossed green salad, cauli mash with cream cheese, bacon, and chives.  She made several pies but I will have lemon cheesecake with a dab of 50 fifty strawberry jam.  What a wonderful  meal, I didn't feel deprived at all ;D ;D ;D

Hi Alex! :)

Sounds like your coworkers brought Easter "leftovers" to work.

It's times like this that try our FTS mettle.
And you're correct. You are only responsible for yourself.
Congrats on staying true to yourself and FTS. :) :) :)

After church, my wife and I moved her horse to a special trainer yesterday. So I spent most of the day in a truck. So no temptations this Easter.
What you do today is what matters!

I can relate! My whole family dug into their chocolate Easter candy tonight after dinner. I was so tempted. Instead I had some sf jello with redi whip and felt so good for my choice. Kuddos to all of us for resisting. 8) 8) 8)
