Ugh!

So, yesterday, Mike and I were going for a walk and, on the way, we stopped at some bakeries to check out what they had for sale.  We want to have a little treat to celebrate Mike's birthday later this week.  Anyway, we went into one bakery and saw some interesting goodies and told the server we'd be back later.  After walking around a bit more, I told Mike that I felt bad at going into that one bakery to check things out and then not buying anything and that we could buy one 'hedgehog' and share it.  After eating it at home (it was okay tasting), I thought about our purchase and said to Mike that we need to do better in the future at NOT buying goodies like we did today.  In Mike's defense, he did, at first, say we shouldn't buy it when I suggested it, but gave in quickly.  So, we both have agreed to be more strong-willed in the future.

A good thing we have decided on, though, is that we are going to just buy one small treat each for Mike's birthday instead of a whole mud cake and 2 litres of ice-cream like we would have done in the past.  We also agreed to buy just a single 600ml bottle of pop to go with the treat instead of buying a 1.25ml bottle of pop even though the smaller bottle of pop is more expensive.  We are making small positive steps in our journey to good health.  I will celebrate these small steps! 😀
