Tuesday weigh-in

I'm back down from the pound I had gained next week, but still haven't broken through to any new weight loss.

I think I need to go back over my original goals and reasons for losing weight that I had written out when I started and get remotivated. I'm having trouble just wanting certain things because I like them, even though they're not good for me. I don't always see the connection between this donut and excess weight "because, after all, lots of people I know eat donuts and aren't overweight." I need to remember that whatever pleasure there is in eating donuts (and whatever else) is just so very temporary, but has such lasting results.

I'm back up 1 lb., but that's not surprising. I really need to get back on track.

Tuesday weigh-in: Week 8

No change this week -- I've been at the same weight for the last 3 weeks now.

But that's a good thing considering last week I made some of our favorite chocolate chip cookies with vanilla pudding in them for Neighborhood Bible Time (like VBS) and made extra so our family could have some -- and I just couldn't seem to keep my hands off them. I've done a lot better the last couple of days, and it was enough to offset the cookies, but not enough to push through to losing.

But I hope to report a loss next week!
