UUUGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just came from the mall...
All I want is lo mein lol & a milkshake of course. But I didn't do it. I stayed strong. I should've eaten before I went..I've learned my lesson. Now I am back at my desk with all my prepped food for the day.

GREAT JOB!!!! Resisting even the smallest temptations are major accomplishments each and every time!...keep up the great work my friend....I'm proud of you! Your doing great!

THANKS!

Now let's see how the weekend goes. Have a good weekend!

Having food prepped is recipe for success. I don't like depriving myself, so I have to keep healthy alternatives around all the time.

Great job on surviving the mall! It gets easier. I can hear the motivation in your posts and can sense the pounds melting away for all of us!

I tried the roasted garbanzo beans today. What an awesome snack!!! Thanks T for the idea. Wow. Can't wait to season them with all sort of things and am wondering if other kinds of beans would work, too. I brought some to my neighbor and their whole family went nuts for them and plan to start making roasted beans in place of potato chips. What a great alternative for kids!

Just had my chicken breast and salad with yogurt and pecans for dessert. Feeling full and so far, so good on day 5!

Well...
This weekend I didn't do so well. All my encouragement...for nil. I went to 2 parties & couldn't stand it. I had a couple drinks which always leads to trouble. Anyway, I am back on it today. I have all my food ready.

Darn drinks will do that to you. How's the starting over?? We have all been there - and there again - and there again!

Sending you encouragement.

Starting over is crazy too. Sometimes I do hair & when I do that I don't even come home. So yesterday wasn't good either. I did hair until 1a. My husband brought me buffalo wings at 11p. lol. So you know I was starving. Between 7p when I got to my destination & 11p when I actually got sustenance, I had about 4 graham crackers. I did drink plenty of water though. I suck royally at this. Today wasn't the best since I didn't get in the bed til 2a so I didn't have anything prepped for today. Hopefully, tonight I'll have some me time. Let's see.
