Before After

failed again

If you've been reading these posts at all, you'll notice a recurring trend - I do awesome for about 2 and a half weeks, then I totally f*** it up and have to start all over again.

Without fail, I do something to sabotage myself.  This week, I overdid it just a LITTLE bit at a party last weekend, and it's snowballed from there.  I can't stop eating. 

Last night I went to a book club meeting and ate for 3 hours.  2 hours had gone by when suddenly I realized my hands had been going for the chips and dip non-stop since I had arrived.  I'm thinking, "why do I feel so full?  I didn't have any dinner tonight," then looked down and noticed a bowl of spinach dip completely devoured.  I was sitting on the edge of my seat, hovering over the food like I would fight off anyone who came near my pretzels.  For the next hour, I managed to sit back in my chair, but COULD NOT resist the cookies and cupcakes that appeared just a few feet away from me. 

I'm not sure if any of my friends noticed my behavior - they must have, because I was acting like a starving crazy person.  This morning the scale says I gained another pound.  No surprise there!  2 days until my WI.  Totally screwed. 

Chugging water like it's my job.  And coffee (even decaf) seems to work pretty well as an appetite supressant - going to get more at lunch.
