Man alive, this Starbucks Challenge is harder than I thought it would be! It’s ridiculous how much stuff I spend my money on that I don’t really need, mainly junk food. Particularly food high in saturated fats, sugar, salt…you know, all the good stuff! We were at Walmart today and they were selling Krispy Kreme donuts. If you’ve had them before (especially if you bought some today!) you know what I’m talking about when I say my fat cells were screaming for those donuts! Emma was getting her picture taken and they were 45 minutes late. The whole time I was freaking out and just about bought some multiple times.
So what stopped me? The starbucks challenge! It wasn’t the fact that they’re not healthy and I don’t need to get any more morbidly obese than I already am. It was the fact that we’re doing this. And as much as it sucked not slipping into nirvana as I ate 12 heavenly donuts, it felt good to walk away knowing that I’m going to be giving that money to someone who needs it far more than my fat cells do!
So what about you? How are you doing with this? Have you slipped up yet?
Even if you have, keep on doing it! Match what you spent and move on. Someone’s future could depend on it.
