This is probably getting old, but I have finished up 10 weeks of the Optifast product and I have five more full weeks on it.
I did have a setback Saturday. I let my head go places it really shouldn't have gone. I was thinking boy it should would be nice to eat...anything. I was deep in thoughts about how I didn't care that I was overweight and that I really wanted to eat something. I fallen off many diets with those thoughts, but right now sitting here writing this blog I am not sure what that feeling was or what exactly those thoughts were. And it wasn't until Sunday did I realize that those weren't good thoughts.
Sigh, I thought I was better but it looks like I have been living in lala land. I figured that it was the stress from being pulled over, and that I do have" triggers" other then I like the taste of food. And now I will be going into my stressful season having to eat food - blech. If I hadn't been on Optifast I would have eaten. So when I can make decisions about food other then Optifast will I choose wrong - again?
One of the thoughts that was going through my head was I would never ever lose all the weight so why try. Though I have gotten a good start I have so much to lose, and it won't be done in a year. I guess I must just forge forward worry about tomorrow tomorrow.
More than a good start. A great start! And the good thing about doing it slowly is that you will be forging new habits. You can't forge new habits in a couple of months!
