My week just seems to be not going great. I am so crabby right now....I really just need to zen it out and take a deep breath. Let it go.
Ous stove is dying on us right now and we need to find a new one. Why does something always have to go wrong when you are just trying to save some money? It's like it is a rule!
I am extremely happy to say that I am down to 184.8! The lowest I have seen in a while - it feels so good. I have stuck to my diet and I feel relieved almost. It's so nice to see the scale move. I know the weekend is going to be hard - we have a wedding on Saturday and I am just going to enjoy myself. I know it will effect my numbers for 17 days but I am okay with it. I don't want to sit with a glass of water and no food on my plate.....I just want to enjoy myself without worrying. I am going to eat on plan for the rest of the day but then I am just going to enjoy seeing all my friends and eat what I want with a couple of drinks.
The crazy thing is I have not had a piece of junk food, chocolate, diet pop......nothing~! I am not really sure that I miss it all that much. Certain times I have felt like I would like it but I am not feeling deprived and I am really suprised by that. Talking with my father in law last night and he said that he couldn't do this because he couldn't have bread. I felt exactly the same way until I tried it....and honestly I don't really miss it. I haven't really been in a situation of a lunch out or dinner where I am avoiding something really good but I did eat a sandwich for lunch everyday and I am okay with not having it. I'm not saying I will never eat bread again but I will make it more of a treat than an everyday thing.
I had to go back & catch up to see what your 17 day diet is about. Sounds like you're on track!

We do need to enjoy ourselves. Sounds like you are doing pretty good. How do you find the 17 day diet. I was thinking about trying it.
