Step away from the scale…
Day 9 in the book wasn’t all that great, it was just identifying how I want people to respond to me in certain situations. My hubby and I already have that worked out and as I mentioned before, our life is so boring we don’t do much else.
I got on the scale…again. I have been telling myself that I’m only going to weigh once a week at the most and lately it has been every day. For days I have been stuck at 284 so this morning I stepped on it AGAIN. I think I was almost looking for a reason to get discouraged so that if I made a bad food choice that it wouldn’t be my fault. I don’t know who’s fault I would think it was but of course it couldn’t be mine. Anyway, apparently my scale decided I needed a break because it said 282.0. How sad that 2 little pounds could make my day. Now, instead of looking for any opportunity to throw in the towel I am refocused.
Another funny thing, I actually gave myself permission last night to eat something not in my plan, but it had to be something I truly wanted, not just anything that kind of sounded good. I couldn’t think of a damn thing that was worth going off the plan. I know that’s fantastic but I was so mad last night. So now when “cheatiing” thoughts jump into my head I ask myself if it’s worth it. If it is I will eat it but right now I can’t figure out what would fit the bill.
