I can’t wait until tomorrow’s weigh in. I seriously need to own up to my indulgences and need a swift kick in the rear to jump back on my track to greatness! It’s funny I weighed in at home and holy moly did I gain this week, up 3 lbs. For some reason this at home weigh in did not curtail my cravings or my behaviors today. I’ve completely continued on with my splurging, despite what the scale says.

It’s almost as if the scale at home doesn’t matter (when in fact it really does). Or perhaps it’s more of a mental thing: Aw heck I’ve already gained some serious poundage, what’s one more day?! What am I saying! It’s this line of thinking that got me in to trouble the first time. I need to shake it off and jump right back on track.

I know this weekend ahead will be a challenge. It’s our secondary Christmas with the other half of my family but I refuse to continue on this pattern of eating whatever is in front of me. Just because it’s the holidays doesn’t give me the excuse to lose all control! As my friend would say “Stick a fork in me, this bird is already cooked!” I’m tired of hurting, tired of feeling full and eating anyway…. Well no more! I’m finishing up today with a healthy dinner, putting myself right back on track, getting my swift kick in the rear at tomorrow’s official weigh in, and jumping back on my healthy lifestyle groove. This is not a set back, it’s just a blip - we all have them and now it’s time to put it behind me.

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and I’ll be back with the official damage tomorrow! Wish me luck!
