RAFL Up almost 1 lbs

But it's OK. Last weekend was paved with great food and lots of it. After
two days of eating really well (and not in the healthy sense of the word) my
MIL invited us to a restaurant - who can say no? And no, there weren't any
low fat choices, but we enjoyed ourselves with wine and dinner)
Monday and tuesday I have been OK, but I was aware that there would be a
small gain, but I am not too bummed out, as I know the reason for it.

So today I will try to stay clear of temptations. Thursday and Friday will
be impossible though: Thursday will be spent in front om my boyfriend's wide
screen TV watching Lord of the rings and the two towers - with his faboulous
lasagne and lots of it, and Friday is when we celebrate our 6 months and
Valentines Day. So I am prepared for a gain.

BUT: Come Monday next week I am right back on track. I only have 3 lbs to
go)! And this time I am not in such a hurry as long as I reach goal by
March 18 (my daughter's birthday)) Then I wll start maintaining!

I have a plan..*g*

Ah well. Better a gain you can explain than one you can't Or eating
food you know is bad and not enjoying it, but getting the gain anyway. You
had a couple of days off, you ate well, you enjoyed it, you went up a
little.

But more temptations are ahead I see. Well, such is life. There's always
something! Still, you can do a little damage limitation - pad out the
luscious lasagne with salad or veg. Make the best choices you can for your
celebrations, that kind of thing.

In the meantime - happy valentine's day, and happy anniversary!

you are so close to goal that come next week you don't want to see a shocker
at the scale. Any chance of you limiting yourself a little? Load up on
veggies. Maybe have some soup (free) earlier in the day so you are not so
hungry. Goo dluck.

Good attitude Mette. This is a lifestyle plan. It is not always possible
to "be good" as long as in the long term you are on the right track.

Well, I must admit that these eating-days have been my personal and informed
decisions. I enjoy eating socially and it has been something I've been
looking foreward to. I know it comes with a price tag, but right now I do
feel that it is worth it. There will be another week after this one and yet
another week after that. I am not going to gain 7 lbs by indulging a bit
these next two days. I will allow myself to celebrate and NOT to think about
healthy choices. This is life and not a diet so it shouldn't feel like one.

I am very close to goal and I feel that I have enough time to get there, as
long as I get there by summer really)

I am very OK)

what a wonderful, and realistic attitude, Lee
