YOU ARE NOW IN SELF DESTRUCT MODE!!! HURRY....RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!!

Ever feel like you're in self destruct mode? I sure do. All week actually. Every day was something different. Wednesday was dinner at church (I packed my own, yeah me!!). Then Thursday was Homecoming Mum making extravaganza, Sidnee and Will went golfing, Emma was being herself, then Sidnee went to the bonfire. I so wanted to have dinner with them and hear about their days so I waited, and waited, and yup, waited some more. THEN, finally, at 9 PM everyone was home and hungry. You know on Core, you're supposed to listen to your hunger cues. Well I didn't. I was hungry at 7, but by 9 I was STARVING!! We ordered from Ranchers and I did initially start with a good choice. A chicken fajita salad. Well, Will called in the order but forgot that I now don't eat it with cheese. No big deal, I'll just scrape it off right? Well....wrong! By the time I ran to Wal-Mart, got the food and sat down to eat, my cheese problem was not even a problem anymore. I ate it AND all of the ranch dressing to boot. Oh yeah, and the greasy chips!! AAAHHHH!!! Then Friday was Homecoming, there I was trying to get 3 girls ready, hair brushed, mums pinned on and everyone out the door. Did I mention it was my 10 year reunion? Yeah, so there I'm trying to find something to wear to the game as well!!! That's enough stress in itself. So, needless to say, we didn't eat before the game as I had planned. Instead, we're going through McDonald's and we all know regardless of what plan you are on...McDonald's is not safe at all!!! Do you see where I'm going with this? Good...the rest of my WW week followed the same suit. Oh yeah! Mother nature decides to visit too....AAAAAAAAAARRRRRHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! No wonder I can't control my own emotions, thoughts, or stomach!!! She always has such a strong hold over everything I do for the week!! Why? Could it be physiological? Could she be my scapegoat? Or could it be with everything else going on in my life that week that "my give a damn was busted"? Or perhaps all of the above. Oh well. I'll be at my meeting tonight to face the music. I'll fill you guys in on how everything went.

But, I found an interesting article that I thought ya'll might like to read. It has some good pointers, some we already know, but who couldn't use a refresher course now and then right? Hope it helps! Until next time!

Great article! It's nice to know that so many people out there have lost weight and kept it off. The key is it truly has to be a lifestyle change. Because no matter how much will power you have to get you through weeks or even months, will power cannot sustain you forever. It must be a conscious decision to change, not just do a few things differently for the short term. ~Vonda
