Hi everyone,
Terri, you're so right about how, in the past, you (and probably all the rest of us!) would have said, 'Oh, I'll start over on Monday', but instead are taking today as the fresh start day.
That's what has been the greatest thing about 123 for me, the fact that if I do have a "bad" day, I usually turn that around within 24 hours.
Your goal of losing 5 by Christmas sounds great. With the positive attitude you have, I'm confident that you'll be successful at reaching it.
Essie, hey none of that now!
No beating yourself up. You enjoyed yourself a little more that you've been doing lately. That's what a holiday is for! I'm so glad you had a great time with the special guys in your life. Those memories are so important.
We had a very nice day yesterday; I cooked dinner, and am happy with the fact that I didn't overeat at all. I actually was very careful with what I chose, didn't have any seconds (which I always do!), and don't have any regrets today. That is a first for me.
Even though the scales might not always say what we want them to, we have to remember that we are learning new eating and planning skills that we previously didn't use. That is just as important as losing!
It's a beautiful sunny day here. I'm hoping to get lots done with decorating as long as it's so nice out.
Myra, Dianne, Pookamon, Satin, hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving!
Jen
