So I’m down almost a pound this week.
In the middle of the week I was down more than that.
The problem is that instead of tracking and watching more portions, I thought that ignoring it would be a better idea for the sake of having a social life. A couple of dates, the Gourmet Food and Wine expo and Sydney’s 8th birthday party included foods I probably should have stayed away from…but I didn’t.
So I could have done A LOT better this week. But there aren’t any do-overs. We accept and move on.
I’m NOT upset with the number on the scale (well, I should be because it’s still higher than a couple of weeks ago), but I’m disappointed that I KNOW I could have done better.
I can’t use events and social activities as an excuse, though. I’ve done this all before and somehow made it to goal. I know that planning all of my meals is really key to my success and I’m doing just that. I just need to leave more room for the unexpected but still make wise choices.
I’ll get under 160 by the end of the year.
I promise.

As you know already......you've already done the most important thing you can do to deal with it - you acknowledged it....you're movin' on...........and kickin' @ss this week....right?
you DO deserve that - and I know you can do it!
Go Mouse Go! :)
You absolutely DO deserve that. You can do it!
I think under the circumstances you handled this week very well! And a lb down is great :)
I like that you say you deserve it. So often you hear people talking negatively about themselves. I like that you know you are worth it.
Go Mouse GO!!! You DO deserve it and I love that you think so! :)
....I left you a little something on my blog, Mousie!
