Today, I was tempted

OMG, I cannot believe that I almost "cheated" today. I was running late for work and I didn't have time to grab anything healthy on the way out the door. Thing is, I usually prepare my breakfast before I go out the door to work. I like my meals fresh. So, anyway, I'm waking up at 7:40...I usually get up at 6:45 so I'm waking up a whole hour late. I rush and get ready and I know I don't have enough time to prepare my meal and head out the door. So I had to grab something quick. I looked in the cabinet and all I could find was unhealthy snacks but what caught my attention was....a scrumptious...delicious...chocolately.....cupcake. Oh, no...not the cheap off-brand kind (not that I have anything against them) but it was a Little Debbie snack cake, you know the one that comes with TWO in the pack. I reach for it and debated with myself trying to convince myself that I can "work it off." Hey, I'm entitled to cheat every once in a while aren't I? I debated long and hard.....I ended up putting it back. That was the most tough decision I had to make. Needless to say I was starving at work. I couldn't wait for lunch. I had a nice grilled chicken salad and it felt like I haven't eaten in days! But the extra chicken was well worth it! I deserved it today.
