Standing in a puddle of mud
Hi
I know its been a couple of days since I let you guys know about this snowball’s forray into the hot sun :-P It seems that snowballs and sun dont mix well. Since we were last together I melted off an additional 2.3 Kgs bringing the grand total down up to 5.2 Kgs. Now the total snowball size is down to 145.8 Kgs.
I lost 900 Grams this last week, even though we went to a lovely wedding during the weekend, with all that that entails of drinking and eating and more drinking. This leads me to a little Rant about this whole diet thing. Where I go to get weighed and measured, they have a name for things like what I did during the wedding. They call it sinning, God I hate that, the religionising of the whole thing. Its not about being perfect all the time, there has to be room for something like a wedding and stuff like that. It wont kill your diet if you fall in once in a blue moon. What is imortant is that you don’t stay in the whole. When you are done with that one day not following the plan its about continuing the good trend you have been working on. So lets call it something else, lets call it a detaur or whatever. When I go to these meetings I come for positive reinforcement not to get told Im a sinner. I go to the Church of weightloss but dont expect me to become a rabid fanatic. Im gonna keep it positive and walk my middle road, following the idea of the “scriptures” but not believing in em like they were the words of “you know who upstirs/downstairs/all around us/in us/ whatever floats your boat“.
So keep it positive! Don’t kill yourself if you fall in and have a day of excess. They won’t hurt you if you don’t do it every day or regularly. Smile and enjoy your carrots again thinking about how much fun you had.
