What is it about a Birthday Party that makes you think that you have carte blanche to eat whatever you want? It’s kind of like my friend who says to break the chocolate chip cookie in half so all the calories fall out (that this is not true is one of the true injustices of this world).
Sigh. So last Thursday was my weigh in, and magically I lost 2 lbs. (GO WATER!) But as is my typical MO, once I lose a little, I lose my mind. And this week not only am I not drinking my water, but I have eaten copious amounts of birthday cake, chips, dips, and pizza. Still. The Party was on Saturday, and I’m finishing up the chips today. Yup. Just tipped that big ole bad into my yawning maw. Sigh. One day I will learn self control. I really will. Food will no longer have power over me in this way, and I will remember that being thin is better than the lousy chip I just ate. I really will. Sigh.
So, motivation. I think I’m a rewards kind of girl, but promising it to myself just doesn’t seem to work. What do you say? Weight Loss Swap? Anyone? For every 5 lbs? Or maybe the first 5 lbs, but every 10 after that? What do you think?
