Thursday

So, that cookie yesterday... well, it made it so I ended the day 5 points into my weekly flex allowance. I guess this is the benefit of having those flex points. They are there for those "gotta have it" moments when you find yourself saying yes to that yummy treat when you know you probably should not.

Anyhow, I did finish the day by getting EVERYTHING written down and have done so today as well. Day 1 Mission accomplished, Day 2, half way there!

I have a doctor's appointment tonight which I am really not looking forward to. First of all, I know it will include a scale (which is ALWAYS 2 pounds heavier, btw); second of all, because I am really not sure what her definition will be to success. Have I lost weight since I last saw her? Yes - but first I gained, THEN I lost, so if I am lucky, I sustained.... BUT, I am a couple weeks into this new outlook and this new blog and still optimistic that this will help things work. Accountability is key for me - and I am talking weekly (and daily when it comes to this blog) accountability - not "an appointment every 2 months for a follow-up" accountability. Let's hope she sees it as good that I am still brainstorming and not giving up completely!

Wish me luck!

Remember not to get fixated on numbers; in the past you have been discouraged at times by the sacle. Tell me how many times you resisted temptations when you tell me of a cheat OK ?
Positive outlook right?
