A small bout of willpower will equal a bigger accomplishment

For lunch today I poured me a glass of orange soda to go with my healthy lunch. Sadly, orange soda is one of my weaknesses. As I was eating I began to get thirsty. I was reaching for the glass when I just got this feeling. A feeling as if it just wasn't right. Did I really want to ruin a perfectly healthy lunch with such an unhealthy beverage. I also felt as if I didn't want to waste it. Hard earned money was spent on it. At the same time I realized that in the long run that $1.29 would be re accumulated with the satisfaction of stepping on the scale and seeing a pound loss. Only achieved if I just dump it out.  Which is exactly what I did. I made me a glass of Cranberry, pomegranate green tea instead. I hope i can continue to make more of these good choices, and be on my way to making healthy decisions, and meeting my weight loss goal!
