The story about resisting the bad food and driving home depressed is fantastic.

I deal with Food depression almost nightly. After I've finished dinner and I'm sitting in a hotel room thinking I miss the days of having a bag of chips or a 6 pack in the fridge, I start to get depressed. But, once I put the workout clothes on and get on the hotel treadmill, the depression fades and pride sets in. I feel so good after my run, I'm proud of another good day, happy that I know when I step on that scale saturday i won't worry because after a good week the results are always good!

Great job of resisting temptation, and when your friends and co-workers start pushing you to "cheat a little" I like to say something similar to this: "It probably won't hurt my weight loss, but it will hurt my feelings that I caved, because I'm more proud of my will power than I am of my weight loss". That usually gets the point across that you are trying very hard to do something and they should respect that.

Ever notice how it's the people that are super skinny that offer you that stuff?

After reading this it made me think of the day I was out with my siblings. We went to a restaurant and not one of them asked me if I wanted some of their food...which is what we usually do to each other. They know I am working hard and they have supported me in ways you wouldn't think was possible.
