Current weight : 14st 9.5lbs
Weight loss this week : 1lb
Total : zip
As you can probably guess there have been birthdays this week. My mum and my son. Tricky situations when trying to lose weight. Cake/eating out/eating in/alcohol/chocolates etc. And as you all know by now I find temptation so easy to resist....do I hell! Faced with any type of delicious but fattening food there is some small part of my brain telling me it's just not worth it, but the most part is shouting Yoohoo, give me lots of this crappy, fattening, full of calories food, and don't stop!
I don't know why I behave like this, but I know I'm not alone. This is why losing weight is so hard for so many of us. We just can't resist these foods when presented. Sometimes we don't even really want them but we are brain washed to eat them anyway. And those lovely people who don't behave this way find it very difficult to understand. Shit, I find it difficult to understand!!
So what's the cure? So many people & businesses out there making money on their promises to help us slim, thousands of books, thousands of diets, thousands of slimming clubs, thousands of supplements, pills, wraps, creams, powders, shakes, hard boiled eggs. Some help, a little, others just don't cut it. At the end of the day it is up to me, what I choose to eat, and it is a choice, albeit a difficult one most of the time.
So, that's my week (and I cracked a tooth (I was eating salad at the time, not toffee!) that had to be pulled out :-( so not a happy bunny). Well if you'll excuse me I'm off to have lemon meringue pie for my breakfast.
You never know how strong you are until strong is the only choice you have.
