All is well today, kind of a bummer day. Picked up ashes for my cat that passed away last week, Tigger. And also my dog had to have a growth removed from her ear, not sure of the result on that yet. So in past this would lead me to binge but I didn't. My scale isn't moving much, but I feel good and my clothes fit good so I'm not going to let it stress me. I had a big wake up today with a 'cookie attack'! My sis in law loves to bake and she was baking cookies and cake today for some people, well I almost said, I wish I could have one, but then I thought to myself, NO I don't, I am making the choice NOT to have one. Even though the urge/craving was there, I took the conscious effort to make the choice and know that, no this is not for me! Even though that may seem like a small step it was a big one for me, and I'm proud of myself.

Condolences on your cat. I learned st my 12 year old Millie (my avatar) last month and I cry for her every day.

BTW I lost 2 cats in 1 month 2 years ago. We got a puppy and they just disappeared. I'd like to think they somehow found their way to a cats-only home, but I know it's significantly more likely they stayed out late (angry with us) and were eaten by a predator of some kind. Pets really are part of the family, and naturally have shorter life spans than us. Anyway, point is that I mourned for a long time and can finally write about it without getting upset. I'm sure it will get easier to smile again with time.

How brave! Stick to making the right choice - you will get many more chances to do so!

Sorry about your cat. Good for you on passing on the cookie. Don't worry about the scale moving, it will catch up. You said your clothes fit good and you feel good. That's shows progress.
