Total weight lost so far : 26.2 pounds

And I’m back in the game!!!  Tracking is clearly the key to my success.  I went back to writing down everything that went into my mouth.  Last week my WW leader said, “If you bite it, you write it” and man, was she right.  During all of my previous success, I did the tracker.  Then, I stopped during the holidays.  STUPID MISTAKE……and a lesson learned.  I also did some things that I didn’t even do during my previous success.  Firstly, I said No to the Almighty McDonald’s.  While the rest of the family ate McD’s, I ate a cauliflower souffle and salad.  It was hard, but I really enjoyed my souffle, so it didn’t seem that bad.  I drank more water.  And I listened to Kate Moss….well, sort of.  Kate once said, “Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels”.  And while I don’t advocate stick thin figures who maintain their bodies via a diet of starvation and cocaine, I do advocate thinking about the food choices you make.  I could have eaten McD’s.  I had the points.  It probably would have tasted better to me – AT THAT MOMENT.  But, the souffle was a better AND healthier choice – AND I enjoyed that, too.
