Well, I eventually got the guts to weigh yesterday and found I had gained 2 lbs, but this morning 1 lb is gone again! lol I plan to drink lots of water today.
My husband asked me an interesting question the other night. He wanted to know how much of his support did I want over the holidays, as far as eating "forbidden" foods go. I've always rambled on to him, in the past, about needing and wanting to lose weight and how it's so difficult to do when we enjoy food so much! Especially over the holidays. However, I was surprised at myself this time around. I didn't have that urgent response that I've had in years past. I told him that I hadn't actually thought about it. It hasn't been an overbearing issue for me this year. I think I've changed a lot, mentally, this year. I told him that I don't intend to give myself any reasons or excuses to overindulge in any forbidden foods during the holidays. And, if I do, it'll only be small amounts. I told him that I've been trying to watch my portions and my calories each day and it seems to be working. I also told him how much stronger I feel with the support of my fatsecret friends.
It's amazing how much I've grown over the last few months, with everything I've learned from people on this website, and Dr. Phil of course! lol I still haven't finished listening to the CDs yet, but plan to soon. I am over half done. Ultimate Weight Solution is a very useful tool to use for those of us who have food addictions! If you haven't read (or listened to) his book yet, I highly recommend it.
Well, better get back to work. Feeling much better today!
