Weigh in

OK, I weighed in on my scale at home (which can be off---so maybe it is) but according to the scale, I have lost 14 pounds since beginning this process in January. I am relieved to have not gained weight. I will weigh in tomorrow again, to make sure my scale is not off. Anyway, that motivates me a little to get on track. I was worried that I might be starting from square one. So, I now have made a goal. I am hoping to lose another fourteen pounds (in the short term goal arena). That would make me SOOO happy. This time I am going to try to do it in a more healthy way. Eating 100 calorie snack packs all day is not all that healthy. I was trying to "cheat" and still get the results. I got some results, but had worse and worse cravings. Also, doing it all unhealthy, it just couldn't last. I will try to be balanced a little more this time. Fruits and veggies will be my friend. We shall see how this round goes. The saga continues (I guess as it has for many, many years.)

OK, I have been avoiding the scale, avoiding the truth, for quite a while. It is summer and bathing suits will not be my friend this season, that's for sure. I think I will weigh in tomorrow and see where I stand to begin this "journey" again. I definately fell down hard on my face---and now it is time to face the music and start over. The only thing worse than falling down, is not getting back up. Clearly, it has taken me a while, but I guess I will give it another go. I am scared to see how hard I have fallen down. That will be a journey for tomorrow. Besides, it is night, not a good time to weigh in. If I weigh in tomorrow, at least I should be down a couple pounds from where I am at tonight. I guess I must say goodbye to chips and ranch, lots of beef, and all my naughty pleasures. I just enjoy food so much, and have enjoyed having no limitations on myself for the last couple months.

Maybe I will start Monday to give me some time to motivate myself (and a couple more days to eat chips----let's be real)!
