Day 7 - Successful
I can’t believe I actually made it seven days! Today is
Friday, so I know from past experience that the weekend will be difficult. But for some reason, I feel this is different
than my usual calorie counting past. I did it last weekend, so I think I can
continue this one. Why does this feel
different? Is it the sugar
addiction? Could that possibly be a real
thing?
This morning, hungry as usual, my pants felt looser. I feel like I am losing weight. Is this just wishful thinking or could it
possibly be true? Losing weight in
November? That would be something. I will weigh myself next week at the gym.
Tonight for dinner, we did happy hour so I had a couple
glasses of wine and I did the best that I could. I had some fries, a tomato mozzarella salad,
some artisan bread and some pizza. The
pizza was a pear gorgonzola that was really good, but the pears tasted too
sweet to be natural. Probably had some sugar. I had a cappuccino afterward. So I still feel like I did pretty well. It is also the only time this week I have
gone out to dinner.
This experiment is having some unexpected results. For one thing, I am finally writing every
day. I need to do this more and
more. For another, I have finally broken
Peter of the habit of bringing me sweets as a treat. I have been telling him for years that I don’t
like getting candy as a “goody”, but he continues to do so, thinking that I am
complaining but not really truthful. Then I eat it because I would feel too guilty
throwing it away and thus starts the self-loathing cycle. He is respecting this and even came home with
whole wheat bread this week since he wanted to give me something.
