I started this blog 2 weeks and 5 days ago and it's been viewed 1,000 times! It wouldn't be as much fun writing this blog if people weren't reading it, and people ARE reading it!! Thank you to those who have given support and advice, and I hope those of you who are trying to lose weight are finding some support, or are at least having your own thoughts and your own struggles affirmed, by reading this. You're not crazy for thinking what you think. That is what I tell myself daily. I used to tell myself things like, "I'm the only nut who thinks this way" and now I know I was wrong. There are MANY other nuts out there that think exactly the same way I do. :-)
Even though I had a big brownie blunder yesterday I'm not letting it get me down. Today is a new day, and it WILL be a day without dessert. It WILL be a day of portion control. It WILL be a day of good choices. It WILL be a day with exercise. And most importantly, it WILL be a day of positive thinking!
Can we get a status update?
ReplyDeleteDo you mean my weight?
ReplyDeleteYou are doing awesome Colleen. I think the Brownie blunder was more of a victory than a blunder, and I mean that you didn't do what you would have done before, and you are making changes even when faced with temptation. Like when you didn't opt for the food treat when you went out. You should still reward yourself though, though try changing it up so it isn't with food. My sister switched from food treats to bath & beauty treats and she is loving the time she spends pampering herself in a way that makes her feel good rather than guilty. You are an inspiration!!
ReplyDeleteYOU are an inspirations Arlyssa!!! And thank you so much for your comment. I AM feeling very proud of myself. :-)
