I promised myself when I started this blog that I would have to be completely honest about this journey, ups and downs, successes and failures. Yesterday, I had a great success at the scale at my weight watchers meeting last night and lost 3 pounds! HOWEVER, I also had a failure last night. I came home from my meeting and ordered pizza. Ordering pizza in and of itself is not a failure, but eating 6 slices is! I had four with dinner (2 too many!) and ate two more cold slices before I went to bed. Why do I sabotage myself? This is where I need the most help....binge eating. I do really, really well, and then I just binge. I need to learn to make a conscious choice to only eat two slices, what is on my plate and when I am finished with those two slices, I am done eating. period. even if there is leftover pizza in the box. One way I can avoid this is by only ordering a medium pizza...that way everyone can only have two slices. period. My whole family would benefit from this portion control. My motto for 2009 has been "If you WANT something different, you have to DO something different." Last night I resorted to my old ways and those habits are the very reason I am severely overweight now. I need to DO something different. NOW, I cannot go back and change what happened last night, so I will LOOK AHEAD and do BETTER today.....and walk a whole lot more this week so the scale is nice to me next week at weigh-in!
PS: how pathetic is it that I only have 3 followers?! I know I have a few that read that are not official "followers".....I need ALL the support I can get!

Hopefully your day went better yesterday. Don't get too discouraged about falling off the wagon, your journey is not going to be perfect. The important thing is to get back on program and not let one mistake ruin the whole week. You can do it!
Ahhh, but Tiff, you know I am a perfectionist....thank you for your words of wisdom. I will get back on the program right now (see today's blog)
