I cheated....sort of

Ok I have a major confession. Well once at work my department orders us lunch because we are closing the books and we don't have enough time to go out and get lunch during the closing process on 5th day. Well of course you know one of my main goals during this 60 day challenge was to give up Chipotle. Imagine my surprise when they told e that they were ordering Chipotle for us. At first I was like, damn I can't have it. It will go against my 60 day challenge, but then I started thinking. I can't control what my company decides to order. I can either eat the Chipotle or buy something else. Well I came to a decision that some may not agree with. I took the FREE Chipotle. I had a Steak Burrito Bowl. I know. I felt bad about eating it, but I have to say I didn't buy it. I haven't stepped foot in a Chipotle since giving it up and still don't plan on it. Do you think I did the right thing? Please let me know.

Everything else is going good. Been doing some intense workouts this week. I'm already at 10 miles of cardio for the week. Hopefully tomorrow I can finish up the last 5 miles and meet my weekly goal. I still haven't officially decided on a book, but I plan on getting that figured out for sure this weekend. I got three books to read so I gotta get started!

Some have asked, "Why are you doing this?". I'm really doing this to get better self-control. Proving to myself that I can go without some of the many things that I indulge in really tests the strength of my mind. When this is all said in done I want to make sure I am able to make better food and lifestyle choices. We will see though. So far so good but it's only day 8. 52 more days to go.
