Well, I had a good day. I would have said great, but I didn't exercise. And then at 10:00 p.m., I lost my will power, and I overate. I didn't pig out. But I went over my points. I want to stop this late night eating. That has to be done. I need a cutoff time. I have to think about this one. I am not good with restrictions, in general. But I am going to try to do this. I think I stopped believing in myself a little bit. But I am trying to write down all my thoughts so I can work things through. I am going to come back to read these entries so that I can understand myself better.
I think one of my problems is that, if I don't starve, I don't feel like I'm losing. But I have to say that the only two times I had a weight loss at a meeting was the two times that I really stuck to points. So I don't have to be hungry. I just have to stick to points and eat low point items. Let's see. 21 points a day. Plus 4 possible points for exercise. That's a total of 25. Then 35 extra for a week. I am going to have tomorrow be my first day of this. I'll start over with my 35 tomorrow. I am going to start keeping better track of this on my journal. So Tuesday, December 16, will be day 1. I am going to track my points and make sure that I get all the WW extras, like water, vits, veggies, and milk, and oil.
Tomorrow I am going to start this whole thing over and stick to points!!!!!
I am adding one more thing to my list of to-do's. Water! Water! Water! I am going to drink one tall glass of water before I eat anything. I am going to stay away from the sodas. Maybe one a day. But I am going to stick to the healthy stuff. It takes thinking and remembering, but I am going to do it.

Hey there!!!!! I went through last night and put all of my used points on a calendar along with my used flex points. I then went back and put in my weigh-in amounts on the days that I weighed-in. I just wanted a place that I could look back and see how the points and losses corresponded to each other.
I bought a 3 liter water at the store tonight and plan on drinking that every day.

I went into one of my challenges that just ended, and I was SHOCKED to see that I lost weight. I know it's not a lot -- 3 pounds. But it is a loss, and it surprised me. I have to remind myself that I am succeeding on here. I don't want to go back into the bad habit of thinking that just because I blew one day or one meal, it means I have to go back up the weight ladder. It's all psychological. It's amazing what a tiny accomplishment will do for your self-esteem.

3 lbs is the same weight as 3 boxes of butter!!!! That is still a lot of fat that is GONE BABY!!!!!!!
I found some new muffin mix at the store tonight by Fiber One for Banana Nut Muffins. It looks like they will be 3 pts each and 5 grams of fiber per muffin. They have banana chips and walnuts in them. Yummy

Do you like to bake? I can do it, but I tend to want to eat the whole batch. Bready, sugary things are my weakness. But thank you so much for the encouragement about the three pounds. It's gone, but I DON"T want it to return. I better be careful! Tomorrow is the beginning. I am really going to try to start over and take this more seriously. Healthy foods, low points, and water, water, water! No soda! I don't want it totally gone. After all, it is diet. But I am going to stop buying my favorite kind. I am going to get one I don't care for that much, and then if I want a little sweetness, I'll drink it. I think that's the best way to go.

I hear ya! I don't really like to bake but I like to cook. I thought that I would bake those muffins and then keep them in a freezer bag and eat one a morning for breakfast. Hopefully it will be enough fiber to keep me feeling full all morning.
I thought about you at the store tonight when I walked by the CW! :-) I walked by the 100 calorie Butterfinger sticks too! YAY! That says a lot since it is almost TOM and I am a chocoholic.

No more CW in this house!!! I just broke the news to my son earlier today. Last night, it was part of my pig-out, and then I just threw it away. But I do think it started the ball rolling. I find that I'll be at the market, fantasize that I'm a normal person that can have these things around and eat them in moderation, and then they explode upon me! Actually, I have quite a lot of candy in the house right now that doesn't seem to bother me. I think it's because I've been coming on here. I really have to keep reminding myself that I'm making progress on here. For some reason a little setback can screw up your thinking. I hate that about the diet wars. But great job in walking by the Butterfingers. And yeah, you can say hi and bye to the CW for me when you pass by it. LOL Night-night! I am going to go to sleep and try to get some of those eight hours they keep talking about. Talk to ya tomorrow!

You know what pretty lady...you CAN do this!! :) Today is a new day. Start fresh and don't beat yourself up. Maybe start out slow. Set a time that you don't want to eat after, and work towards it. For me, I don't like to eat after 7:30pm. So for example, day 1...try to make without eating after 9pm. Day 2... 8:30 pm, day 3 ...8pm and so forth until you reach your goal time. Then you will know that you CAN do it. Go at it slowly, it's a matter of retraining our minds to do what we know we CAN already do!!! I have good days and bad, but this time around, I don't hate myself for slipping up. I just pick back up where I left off, because it actually works. I choose to believe that I'm not on a diet, but that I'm just making the right choices!! :) Hope that helps!! Remember...you are GORGEOUS!! Now it's just time to show the world what you are made of!! :)
