I’m hoping to turn in to something really pretty!

Wow, I was seriously dispirited yesterday, and in fact pretty much all day.  I’ve eaten horribly; not even taking into account what’s going into my mouth, just “rebelling” against the source of my frustration.

Until about three minutes ago.  You see, using the weight watchers forum I found a buddy who could help nudge me along.  Who I could moan to, or email in an attempt to avoid a binge, someone I could get to know, but I wasn’t going to have to face everyday with my successes/failures.

She just sent me a really motivating, encouraging email and it’s really picked me up.  I am ready to get back on track now.  I’m actually looking forward to eating tomorrow.  And eating healthily.  I might have a sandwich for lunch, and I think I’m going to make tagliatelle with grilled vegetables and green pesto for my tea and I’m excited about this healthy meal.  I’m ready to get back on track again.

And, because while I professed I was losing no inches, I hadn’t checked them in a while so now I’ve got some brand new measurements as a baseline on my Weigh-Ins page.  So hopefully, even if the scale doesn’t budge an inch, my waist/hips/thighs will!

Inspiration - we all need it sometimes.  And the funny thing is, while I’ve never met her, my buddy is more spot on with her encouragement than anyone I know.  So to her, I promise, I WILL TRY HARDER!
