Have been fed up with myself because the 6 pounds it took me such a long time to lose, I gained back many of them over thanksgiving. But this was a choice I made out of old bad habits; I chose to eat and not care about the weight gain that would follow; Care yes, but control, I did not choose to. I'm hoping that after a significant amount of time this habit will turn around and I will instead choose not to "pig out" just because people do at holidays, etc. I've been cutting back the past few days and I do see some results, although I have gone over to acceptable carbs (am not strictly on phase 1) - Wasn't feeling well stomach wise, so when that occurs I have to drink a bit of 1/2 & 1/2 to stop spasms, and eat bread, while passing on veggies and salads for a few days. I won't think it so terrible if I stay careful for 1 year and drop maybe 15-20 pounds. That's a lot of weight that I might gain instead if I resort to old habits. I just have to think positive (which is a long time problem of mine). Negative thinking gets me no where. Tomorrow is a weigh in and i am so ashamed to weigh in with a high number; but if I don't, who am I fooling? I guess working the program means accepting slips as well as gains. Besides, I want to give myself 1 year, or perhaps even more, so long as I see a downward trend which I know I can do if I remain positive. I suppose you could call this post, my very own pep talk.

The good thing here is that you are learning to know your body, what helps and what hurts! This "IS GOOD"! Too many people don't even know what makes their body gain, or lose or feel bad or good. You'll get it taken care of! I have faith in you!

As long as you are willing to step up to the plate and persevere, you will get the demon (your own mind) under control. It's when we don't worry about anything that things get out of hand. You will make up for this minor detour in no time at all!

I don;t think anyone could have "put" it better than you. Thanks for getting right down to the point.
