Wendy II.......I keep meaing to tell you how adorable I think you are, and then I forget........so today, before I say ANYTHING else......I am saying.......you are a doll, very pretty, and I love your avatar.
Ok, now..........as much as I have been trying to stay focused (like so many of us), I too am having some issues. I guess for me, the honeymoon is over.........and although I have only been on the program 3 months.......I somehow feel I am ok with little cheats and BLT's (bites, licks, and tastes for all you newbies. When I first started, I was like, hey, what's the obsession with blts???? I mean, they are good, but dang....). Anyway, looking back through my diary, I realized that for 8 weeks, I was losing at an average rate of over 3 pounds a week. At that rate, I would be sitting right next to Kristen with her amazing successes. Somehow, I kind of lost a month. I know the holiday "enjoyments" had a lot to do with it, but the biggest reason is because I stopped working the program the way it was designed. I stopped going to my COD, and blamed it on "not having enough time," and I stopped measuring and weighing everything, and I stopped spacing out my foods, so that I never felt hungry. I know that when I get hungry, I am a dangerous woman. I need to do what Dr. Oz says...........stay almost satisfied, all the time, to avoid binging. I know this about me.........and I stopped doing it. I am re-committing today.........to work this program and get the very most out of it that I can. I will go to my COD saturday morning (without the kids) and really let them help me. I am doing an "emergency TO" (love that, Dan) today and tomorrow to get my brain straight.......and I am going to do this.........one day at a time
Thanks for listening to my plan everyone. I hope you all have a great day
