A PIZZA STORY

Postby elle4nelly » October 12th, 2004, 10:28 am

Hi Guys!

I wanted to share this with you all.
As I type this post from my workplace, the conference room is filled with co-workers and Pizzas!! Meat Lovers Pizzas, Veggies Pizzas, Cheese Pizzas, Pepperoni Pizzas, breadsticks and salads. I must have heard it spoken 5 times: “Nelly don’t you want some Pizza?” To which I said 5 times: “No thanks! I’m not hungry!”
I did open a Pizza box lid and stared for what felt like an eternity at a Pizza with sausage, ham, black olives, pepperoni and onion. I really looked at it and yes, for 10 seconds I was really really tempted to just go for it. But I didn’t! I settled for 30 seconds of “Self pity party” :( and a diet coke! I walked right back to my desk and left everyone gorging themselves with Pizza delight in their eyes.
How do I feel about it? I have mixed feelings :? , because part of me wanted to take a slice and eat it. But the Militant part of me prevented me. :x I heard a voice in my mind saying” Go ahead eat it and watch that scale go backward and don’t you dare complain about it either! It’s all up to you!”
So in a nutshell, it is my choice!!!!!!! It is HARD!!! Some days, down right torturous and cruel! But at 206 lbs my lowest weight in 3-4 years, I won’t let myself go backward even though “ the don’t give in choices” I make each day might make me feel bad at that very moment, It will all be worth it in the end. So I will conclude this Pizza story by saying that “TO REACH MY DREAM I MUST BE PREPARED TO DO NOT ALWAYS WHAT I WANT BUT WHAT I MUST”.

You've said it all! And the pizza will still be there when you're done. The same as it will for me. Now I've just got to work on how to eat one or two pieces and not the whole pizza!
