This hasn’t been the best week. I was watching Oprah the other day and she was talking about dieting and she said the first day you’re all “this is great, I can do this” and then the second day comes and you’re a little less enthusiastic and then the third day comes and you eat a cheeseburger.
That’s kind of how I feel this week. I don’t feel overly motivated. I’ve cheated a couple of times. I wasn’t thrilled about that. But even when I cheated I tried to do it carefully. I ate some wheat thins with great northern bean ‘hummus’ off and on this week for my ‘snack’. One thing I’ve noticed is that I cannot go from lunch to dinner without eating something. I get all pang’y and just want to eat everything in sight. And it makes me a little sick after a while too. So I’ve been trying to build in snacks. The hummus thing is one. And a few wheat thins with a very thin layer of peanut butter us another. But I have to be careful and stop before I’ve eaten the whole box! : )
Having said all of that, I about passed out when I looked at the scale this morning. I was down by 1.5. I don’t feel like I deserve it.
Maybe it’s God’s grace to be an encouragement. : )
Congratulations!
