Thanks, Nancy!
I've made it through today without any divergences, so far. I'm grateful for the support. I've updated my stats -- I knew it was going to be bad, but I suppose it surprises a few to have gone so high in so short a time -- just 4 really bad days.
Just got home from work a short time ago and promptly had my 5th shake. Did have some food handling to do for my son, but I got through that my recently-lost flair. I have to admit that I have or had a bit of an attitude as though I'm angry about having to conform again -- in spite of knowing that I'll be relieved when my crisis is behind me.
I toyed with the idea of altering the "shake plan" to include some kind of salad or, or, or -- but I knew I wasn't really fooling myself and that I was really looking for the loophole or keyhole out of the plan into eating what I might find after that.
So, one day back is almost down, and I'll go to bed if I have to to make it tolerable. I want these new pounds off ASAP.
Thanks, again.
I probably won't literally call because I'm -- yes, shy -- on the phone.
