So this is it - the last "big diet" that I go on. But, I am having all these thoughts about what I am going to eat when I am done. This frame of mind worries me. Just because I am done trying to lose weight I know in my heart that I have to keep watching what I eat.
And then there is the normal fluctuation of your weight. Am I going to wake up one day three pounds lighter and think that this is my free day to gorge myself because I have an extra three pounds? Will I realize that I can't stop being diligent even if the scale is reading lighter then I think it should. Or when I wake up and I am three pounds heavier, am I going to say that isn't to bad it is only three pounds? The road to perdition starts with three pounds.
So I think about food all the time right now. I didn't think about food before because I knew it wasn't going to be there for me when I finished. I knew I would have another year at least to finish this weight loss, so it was more like I really don't want to go off the product because it is so easy. Easy to lose weight. But I made concessions for the first time. I got done with all my work and all I had to do was focus on the diet. I didn't have any other worries clouding my head so it was easier. Much easier. Now - well I am just struggling.
Oh I would give anything for a big Chocolate Chip Cookie

Cardboard. They taste like cardboard. Remember the one we got in NYC. We were so excited. And it tasted like cardboard. I'm off chocolate chip cookies. Yuck.
ReplyDeleteT2 is right - chocolate chip cookies are yucckiieeeee!!!! Potatoes with worchestershire sauce & nothing else are good & pretty healthy, albeit a bit high on the sodium level.
ReplyDeleteChocolate chip cookies are NOT worth burning calories on. Green peas & corn - that's another story.
Go T3!
