Temptation...

Well, I am deep in the throngs of parent/teacher interviews for my special ed class.  These things are a BIG deal and all very formal. 
On the table I have put this bowl of jellybeans, jubes and choc beanies for the 'parents and other staff'.... oh man...

I ate at least a dozen.

I know,,,, I know,,,, it's 100% stress mixed with 100% temptation.

Damn it! Waiting for the scales to pay me back for my greed.

strawberries.... yummmmy.

Luckily I survived day 2 and the next round is not for another 6 weeks!

I was thinking about next time: dried fruits, maybe some of those low fat japanese style cracker shapes... and some carrot sticks. Plus LOTS of jubes- I don't like the jubes.

Hi Em

But that is great news! You are a normal size person now and you ate a normal amount of sweets. Consider what you would have eaten in the past! You stopped on time and you will just write them down, continue eating right, and maybe do an extra round on the treadmill.

Ah, the temptation was too great.  They were nice though.  I hardly ever eat sweets these days.

In the past I probably wuld have polished off one packet myself and needed to buy more for eating today!

Extra workout to make up for it...That's exactly what I did- an HOUR extra on my exercise bike.  Man I was tired out.

That doesn't sound that horrible! Just put GRAPES on the table next time :)  I seem to be living on grapes these days :) BTW, I have just come from your profile page... you are amazing! You are one of my true inspirations here!  Take care!

Grapes... grapes are good.

Thanks for your encouraging comments about my journey. 

It make me feel weird but humble to think I might inspire anyone trying to fight the weightloss monster.  Thanks.
