Temptations...

How do you handle Social Temptations?

Okay, I have the goal written down. I have the vision board made (a new post coming up on this strategy), I have a kitchen stocked with clean food, I have the new fitness clothes, I have the time, but, do I have the strength to endure the temptations around me?

I am a sucker for temptations. I would like to think that I am a strong woman, however, the more I continue on this path of wellness, the more I realize that may not necessarily be the truth. I struggle with social temptations......and I struggle immensely.

With the wedding being 4 months away, I am preparing myself for the temptations of a lifetime! I have two bridal showers, a bachelorette, a baptism celebration, get-to-know the bridal party Party, a 'parents finally meeting' luncheon, and many more events! In addition to my personal celebrations, I have two other weddings to attend, a trip to Atlanta, Easter celebration dinners, bridal showers, baby baptisms, a confirmation, and a couple baby showers! All exciting events that I can't wait to attend, but the temptations are endless....I need strategies!


I am a strong warrior in my home. I eat clean and have amazing willpower! However, take me out for a social event and I don't last 10 minutes. You can find me mowing down on anything and everything that tantalizes my taste buds....I'm truly an 'out of sight, out of mind' kinda girl. When it's in sight, all my goals and desires go flying and I can't seem to catch them....

So, what works for you? How do you survive social events? What makes you stick to your health goals? I need a game plan! Game's on and I have no defence!
