I was full of confidence Sunday when I was heading to the neighborhood gym to weigh myself. I felt certain I would be down, at least a little bit. So I was surprised and irritated when I was actually up .2 pounds.
But then I remembered my Farewell to Food, a ritual that I observe before the start of every diet. I spend a few days bidding adieu to the four food groups of my reckless eating life: chips, baked goods, ice cream and candy. I have a somewhat embarrassing memory of eating two huge jelly doughnuts the day before we started our blog.
So I suspect some of that weight landed over the past week. And I had chips and cookies a few times during the week too. So why was I so surprised to have gained a little weight? And why do I continue bidding farewell to my merry band of bad foods, even though we've never been parted for long?
I started this week without that ritual feast in my rearview mirror. So we'll see......

.2 is nothing...could be different clothes, could be hormonal, could be water retention...really, it's not even countable.
ReplyDeleteMost likely you stayed the same or lost a little that was covered up by the above.
Hope you have a great week.
Thanks for the kind words, Enz. I appreciate it. - Sue
