Weighing in...Can you say BINGE!?!?

OK...I've backslidden terribly. I weighed in today and I'd gained a half a pound. Half a pound is not bad but what I've been doing for the last two weeks IS.

I know exactly where that half-pound came from too....I've been an absolute glutton for the past couple of weeks. Going out of town was gonna be tough I knew, but Lawd have mercy!, I wasn't prepared for the feast of sweets at the Ronald McDonald House. It was almost as if I'd been starving a monster and the taste of refined sugar brought the animal out of hibernation!....

So...today was my last hurrah. I've had enough sugar and fast food over the last couple of weeks to last me til I'm 40 (I'm no where close to that :)

More than anything I'm realizing how much my choices about food have to be about lifestyle versus goal oriented. Without the total commitment, any old set of circumstances could provide an opportunity to fall back into the familiar pattern of emotional and undisciplined eating.

I don't want to go back there. I've come to far and I'm not finished yet!
