Day 7, Week 3 Holiday Cruise to Lose!
Good Morning morning all you lovely, wonderful, BEAUTIFUL, health-minded Fat Secret Peoples!So I avoided my journal again yesterday. Bad, Sima, Bad! No matter what I think I should journal. If I am too busy that's one thign but I doubt that is what was the issue :) Food: I did fairly well yesterday with food until the drive home. I did contemplating using half the dressing on my Boston Market Salad but then put it all anyway but at least that was a choice. Yesterday was all about choices. None of the things were mindless; I just thought about it and did it anyway. On the drive home I had one serving of chocolates (I keep the tin in my car to place them in re-orders and I am usually pretty good about only having one serving, BUT!) The I had another serving on the way to Yoga and then one on the way home.....what was THAT all about. Time to put the tin back in the back seat where I cannot easily reach it! THEN on the way home I stopped and filled up my gas tank and did something I have not done since I started this journey. I bought a whole bag of The fiery Cheetos and ate ALL of it *sigh* Not really feeling guilty, which is the weird part. I ate them all so I would not have them to munch on later (how messed up is that??) and they tasted good and did not make me feel sick. I just have to fight to not make that one slip let me fall back into the habit. I used to, EVERY time I stopped at a gas station get 2-3 bad things to munch on for the drive home or in to work. This I will NOT do habitually again! I think it was the single biggest thing in the last 40lbs or so I gained. Besides last night I think I did the gas station munchie thing maybe twice and both I thought long and hard and made the best choices in front of me (beef jerky once and pumpkin seeds the other I think) Old Man Scale: So here's a weird tale. Yesterday I was up to 241, this morning I am down to 240 again! With the Salt in the Cheetos and everything! I guess with the Yoga, a LOT of water yesterday and wise choices early in the day I did alright.

LOL I've played that weird mental game with myself a few times before. I convince myself that if I eat it all now then it won't temp me in the future. Horrible logic, but at the time it makes so much sense. Even with the Cheetos you still lost so you must have done great with the rest of the day. Congratulations on the loss!

NO.. Sima is good.. Santa is my friend and Santa told me so!! **giggles**.
You know, I have to ask myself every time that I eat something if it is really worth breaking my diet and sometimes stopping progress for a week.. Most of the time I find that it's not worth it and choose not to buy it, not to eat it, or to hide it in the back of the cupboard where it's out of site... Sometimes it is worth it and I enjoy it as if it's the last time I'll ever see it... Now you enjoyed your chocolates and your cheetoes.. You know you did it, you know what you felt afterwards.. now if it was worth it - Great.. if not.. then.. stop and think a little more next time :)
As for the chocolates... have you tried keeping them in the freezer so you eat them slower, or only keeping one or two in the car at a time??
Just suggestions. You are still my hero!

The tin is for my customer reorders. allowing myself an occasional serving is one thing but yesterday was a lesson in old habits. They ahve already been moved to the back seat....

You'd better keep journaling, or there will be a lump of coal in your near future! So today was a reminder of bad habits - and now you move on! Back to the good habits! Bubbly Blue Belle habits! :)
