Yep,
that's what I said and that's what I did. Ok, in case I haven't said it, and I know I truly haven't acknowledged it, my yogurt raisins are a
red light food for me. I can't even have them in the house.
When I am strong,
working the program,
exercising,
drinking my water
and staying within my points,
I will be able to have them in the house, until that point, they are a no-no.
Unfortunately, they are not something I can control and I refuse to let them control me.
So, I took my bag of yogurt raisins (which, to be completely honest, I don't even like raisins...I just like the yogurt that tastes like
white chocolate covering them) and went outside in the back yard and started flinging them by handfulls over the porch railing. Dh, who was working on the truck thought I had gone completely mad.........said, "Are you mad at the raisins?" But before I could even answer, he said, "I know....do what you have to do, honey." Then he came over and gave me a big kiss.
If I wasn't on my TOM, he just might have gotten a big n tasty right there in the backyard with all the buzzards flying overhead.
Anyways.....I'm posting the plan anyways, so here it is.
I think that everyone is an individual and we have to do whats right for
us: This is what I think is right for me...
I am leaving for Charlotte this coming Saturday, May 24th. Starting this
instant, I am going to stay within my points, drink my water and exercise at least 1 mile per day till then. That way, I will be feeling good heading out of town...and you all know what feeling I'm talking about, don't you? You know the one, come on ladies....when you're drinking your water, exercising and eating right? There's no other feeling like it. Now, while I'm in Charlotte, I'm going to allow myself
one meal per day if I want something I just have to have, but the rest of the time, I'm going to eat only low fat items I'm bringing with me. The whole family is eating low fat too....I'm not bringing separate items for me and they get all the high fat stuff. There's not a one of us around here that it wouldn't hurt to eat healthier. Then, when I come back, I am rejoining WW. I believe
Terri said on the last thread that she goes every other week. That's what I'm going to do too. Now some of you might argue with me and tell me that I need to go every week. But right now, I know
me. If I make myself go every week, I'll burn out. I don't know why...but I will. Every other week will be just fine with me, I WILL stay for the meetings and if I want to go every week, I can eventually work up to that.
So, that's the plan...what do you think?
P.S.
Sandy: The words "PEEK-A-BOO" do not qualify as a post....get your tail in here!
Back later...... gotta cook dinner.
