feeling proud....hungry, but proud

Yesterday was the first day I really took notice of my calorie intake in preparation for the 12WBT starting on Monday.
It wasn't the easiest day to start, I was at a friends place for both lunch and dinner, so the temptation to grab some easy food like take-away was pretty hard to resist. But instead of giving in like I ALWAYS do, I went for the healthy option! For lunch, while everyone else had sausages on rolls I had a chicken, avocado and cherry tomato wrap and some salad and for dinner while everyone had pizza and cookies I had a 6" chicken teriyaki sub from subway. I was soooo tempted to have one of the subway cookies as well, but I didnt and I was really glad that I didn't!
Today I have continued in this trend and had another chicken and avocado wrap for lunch. I am feeling a bit hungry now and have had to try really hard to stop myself grabbing something from the kitchen, but I have managed to resist the temptation so far and I keep telling myelf - if I have resisted the temptation so far, I can continue to resist it!
Later on today I will do my fitness test for the 12wbt - I need to run/walk for 1km and time myself. I live right next to an oval but there have been sports played on it all day so far, I'm hoping they will finish soon so I can use it to run around. I'm looking forward to using my heart rate monitor too!
