The holiday is .... OVER...!!!
Monday, December 28th 2009
This is a sentence I am going to have to continually repeat to myself over the next few days as I continue to be tempted to let myself have this or that treat "in the spirit of the holidays"I won't lie... I didn't do very well calorie-wise AT ALL christmas day or boxing day... but I'm ok with that. I logged EVERYTHING. My calories were about double what they are on a normal weight loss day... but I refused to let myself feel bad.

It has been my biggest goal since starting to lose weight (this time) to get under 200... and by Christmas.I am seriously kicking myself in the butt because, by god, I'm GOING TO GET THERE by next Friday! Two pounds in 10 days is totally doable, and I AM going to do it.
I know I've been hovering because I haven't been staying as on track as I should be with my calorie counting and haven't been putting in enough gym ti...
A great reminder that it's a DAILY battle...

I threw a party last night - and without going into all the details I put into a thread this morning - I binged for the first time since joining CK this morning.I felt crappy and was beating myself up about it BIG TIME.
Then I went to they gym and got rid of a bunch of the negative energy on the elliptical. Talking it out with a few friends and CK definitely helped.
But I have to say... 2 very selfish things also contributed to me picking myself up and dusting off.
