Battle of the Bulge

I debated all day about whether or not I was going to bust myself on something.  Then I decided that accountability counts, and it would be in my best interests to be forthright and get the support I need upfront, so here goes.

I’m losing weight by getting these amazing calorie-controlled meals delivered to my door every night - 3 meals and one dessert for the next day.  It’s an amazing system.   The trouble with this weekend is that I will be gone on a retreat for 2 days.  I was sad to discover there is no good way to have my Freshology meals there (no fridge, no nuker), so I have to rely on myself to make healthy choices all weekend long.  Not only that, but there will be tons of sweets there, too.  And as this particular retreat can be fairly emotional, many of the women (myself included) have a tendency to nosh on the sweets all weekend long.

So, I am outing myself in advance - making a vow to myself & whoever reads this blog that I will NOT do that this year.  I’m on a roll with my weight loss.  My belt moved a whole notch tighter this morning and my jeans are starting to get baggy.  This weight loss is noticeable and I feel good, and I want to keep up the great progress.   Just like with my Freshology program, I will only have one dessert a day and it will be SMALL.   I will eat lots of salad and veggies, very few carbs, and protein portions that fit in the palm of my hand.  I’m lucky in that I have never liked a lot of dressing on my salad, so I’m not worried about that whatsoever.  I CAN DO THIS!!  Especially with YOUR help.  Please send me good vibes this weekend & I’ll report back when I return home on Sunday.
