I didn't slip during Christmas. Nyah Nyah! :P Now don't you wish you hadn't given in? I wanted something more than that pan of dressing, and I didn't let myself forget about it. It's great to feel I've got a head start on any New Years Resolution I may have made. My resolution started the day I began this new lifestyle, and no mere piece of food is worth losing my dreams.
I'm interested to see what the scales say next Tuesday - for those who didn't see my other post, I weigh once at the beginning of the month to keep down obsession. There's a set of scales in the bathroom where I take my grandmother to doll class every week, so it's an ideal thing really. I can't give in and jump on the scales any time; they're five miles down the road.
Something I've been in awe over for the past week or so: It's so freaky to think I've gained about 50 pounds since my marriage(2004). I'd love to meet this anniversary with a lesser weight than I stood at on that day. I wonder if I can do it? I was about 180 then, and at last weigh-in I had lost six pounds in my first dieting week..which put me at..227 I think it was. To do it, I'd need to lose about 50 pounds in about 4 months. It can be done can't it? Gosh, that would be such a thrill. I think that will be my core motivation for a while.
So, in closing, let me clarify my intentions with this post:
May it motivate us all to do better and continue unflinching in our path to being healthy.
I almost gave in a few times myself. Almost is okay. Defeat of temptation is sweeter than letting it win. Try it and see. When you're Really ready, there is no going back.
No Fear
