Christmas goodies

[Futureskinnyperson 29]

Hi All....I feel like a new person and LOVE my new body. I have lost 70 pounds and am truly enjoying yoga classes and power walking and weight lifting.

I am almost a size 10.....a little snug yet....but 12 fits beautifully.

I feel that at the rate I have lost this weight I will be a size 8 before I know it!

That is of course unless I let food interfere with my plans to be healthy and happy again........as I am a little afraid of what is happening...and what could happen in the next few weeks.

There are soooooooooooo many bad things to eat around at work.......

I am tired after work and have grabbed a burger too in the past few weeks......of course I can only eat half......but still.....and I don't even like it to be honest.....just an old habit creeping back.....

I ate 3.....yes THREE Cookies yesterday at work.

I have not done that since my surgery and it scared me how easy it was to do.

Then the scale said I gained 2 pounds this morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

High alert.....sirens and bells.....somebody stop me......

Geez.....

I mean really am I going to gain a bunch of weight just because it is Christmas?????????????

Come on right??????

Sigh......

I have to fight that little voice that stills lives inside of me......telling me I WANT those things.....when I actually don't!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Back on track tomorrow.....

Anybody else struggling with temptation?

Temptation bothers me the most when I eat too many carbs and don't drink enough Water. If I keep my Water intake good and avoid things like chips and popcorn, it is easier to say no to temptation.

Another trick I use is to check out the calorie count BEFORE eating something. This has stopped me more than once because what I was going to eat wasn't worth the calories that were in it.
