Well i'm so mad at my self I had been doing great. Today was day 7, no cheating, drinking all my water and everything but then this afternoon i ate a peice of pizza. I'm so mad at my self . But i'm not going to dwell on it. I'm going to pick my self up and keep on going. I'm can do it and i'm going to do it.

I hope that i'm not the only person this has happend to. I'm going to keep on going and i'm going to make it.

Lynn! It's important to think about WHY you ate that slice of pizza. Was it out of stress? Boredom? Were you angry? When we know what our 'triggers' are, it helps to avoid those situations in the future.

But, I am so very proud of you! You had an extraordinary first week! Don't let losing this small skirmish in any way convince you that the war can't be won. You have a wonderful attitude, and I know that you are going to go all the way.

We are ALL pulling for you, Lynn.

Good for you for a) recognizing your weakness and being honest about it right away and b) getting right back on your plan IMMEDIATELY! The worst thing you can do is let your goal out of your site because you had one piece of pizza. You can't go the distance unless you pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back on that horse!

Hi----

Good advice -------you need to know the why so you can plan -- the most important decision is not anymore --- and figure it out with a clearer MF head!!!!! Thinking really does get clearer without all that crap running thru our veins and heads!!!
BRAVO ---- keep -keepin-on... you can do it!

WE WILL do this together!!!

Lynn,

Well, just know this, confession is good for the soul! Glad that you came here and told us. We know how it feels.

Now you are back at it and that is a Good Thing!

The thing that bugs me the most when I do things like that is that I usually eat something off my plan when I am not really hungry. The food doesn't comfort me, it only makes me feel bad about myself. Food is not my friend!

I made a new rule for myself - I will not eat in the kitchen. It is too easy to scarf a lot of calories while standing up at the kitchen counter or with my head in the fridge... The kitchen is a preparation place, not a eating place.

Ta ta.

Have a great rest of the week and remember, Sunday's comin' and we want to have a great report!
