Today was one of those days in my past life I would have eaten everything in sight and then some..... hmm let me start at the begining...
I manage a hotel. My boss was due to come visit the property today to see how I am doing. I have only been with the company for 3 months. Well all day long I was nervous about my boss comming, and I kept wanting to snack, but I didn't. Instead I walked up and down the 3 flights of stairs in the hotel twice each to take my mind off things. Then I found out about 1:30pm that she would be here around 4. So I went home and made lunch, chicken wings.
Well my boss came and was exstatic about how well I had done the things she had asked me to do last time she visited, and sat me down in private to tell me the news. I am being promoted!!! It requires me moving (my 5th state in 3 months) but I have done such a good job here she wants me to go to the property where her office is and fix that one up.
I was so excited when she left I ran home and called everyone I know (which is only 4 people since I just moved back to the country 3 months ago) and told them. then I decided I should celebrate.....
The old me would have gone straight for the junk food, but the new me.... I grilled up a hamburger, fried up some bacon, and made a bacon cheeseburger to celebrate. I never coulda done it without the support of everyone on this board. Your posts are true inspiration.
So now, not only am I getting a promotion (and a raise) I am losing weight while I celebrate all of this. What could be better?
