I spent $15 that I hadn't planned on today, but I do feel ok with it. I had been slipping on my diet in the past week, and this morning I woke up and just told myself that today was the day to get back on track. And I have been on track all day. BUT...this afternoon, Ds and I went out to run a couple of quick no-cost/low-cost errands, and I saw the Golden Arches in front of me. McDonalds...... :-D Quickly, I turned the opposite direction into a drug store and I bought myself some hair dye (since I had let my color go since before Thanksgiving), some new mascara, new eye shadow, and some hand cream to minimize my "dishpan hands". And when I left, I felt great. I went home feeling confident that I could get through the day without cheating on my diet. I used that $15 for something to make me feel better and pretty rather than using it for a Big Mac, fries, and a milkshake, supersized. :-D
Sometimes it's good to reward yourself (only not with food. LOL!)
