Counting calories is not easy!!! What an understatement. I am happy to say that this is week three and I seem to be doing well. I think I am actually more focused, I stick to my points (WW) and I don't sabotage myself in the evenings as I did before. I was 196 lbs two weeks ago and I have not weighed myself since. Maybe I should.
Something else that is different this time...I used to give food so much power, I would feel sorry for myself for not being able to eat what I wanted. I would actually get irritated if I saw my favorite fast food commercial knowing I couldn't have that. Why didn't I have one of those metabolisms that allows one to eat and eat and still be skinny? Ugh...so I would focus on the food untill I would give up and go over my points. And once I went over my points, I did it again and again. Wrong on so many levels.
So Now...I'm learning to look at food in a different way. Hope I succeed this time. I have to.
