3 pd loss-- i woke up yesterday (my official weigh in) and it showed 219 and i was so upset that i ate off diet yesterday-- i think i jumped the gun though-- I'm thinking i need to basiclly stay on phase 1 (modified) until my book comes in-- maybe i wasn't following as closely or correctly as i thought-- hopefully my book will be here by Friday--

i'll eat mostly as before but with some meat -- i'm afraid if i continue eating only veggies/fruit/rice/oatmeal that when i start over i still won't show much of a loss--

i get an email from celebrity fitclub.com and here is a portion of it.



"Here's the bottom line, we don't expect anyone to be rigid--that wouldn't be any fun. If you are at a party and you want a piece of cake, go ahead--just make it a small one. If you are craving some chips, have a few or get a 100-calorie pack--just don't eat an abundance of them. If you are having a night out, go ahead and have a glass of wine or a beer--but just one, not a six-pack or an entire bottle. If you do these things in moderation, but still have your head on straight about eating right 95 percent of the time, and you still exercise like Harvey says then yes, you can still lose weight.

I always told the cast of the show, and I will say the same to all of you--don't make yourself crazy trying to be perfect. That's too psychologically stressful, and tends to make people rebel or hate the plan (any plan) altogether. Be realistic, this is your life we are talking about, and you should have some fun some of the time. Look, let's be honest, sometimes fun can be found in a slice of cake or a handful of chips. It just becomes not fun when you eat so much that you are physically or psychology in jeopardy.

If you take one thing away from this article it should be this: Extremes are never healthy, psychology or physically. Strike a balance in everything you do- including this plan."

that helps me alot-- wished i would have gotten that before yesterday..

have a blessed day!

hugs, Christy
