Darcy's Diary

Oh Darcy I wouldn't get to down on what you ate last night. It was after all just one day out of the week.

About the one day doing good and the next day not so good. I haven't quite figured that out either. I sometimes think that it could be hormonal. Some days I wake up feeling good about myself and the day to come and other days I just wake up with like no self control.

They say it takes 30 days to from a habit. So if you stay away from cookies for 30 days then you have created a new habit. In theory it works but you never know maybe it actually works in life too.
 
Report on Thursday, July 13th:

A great big THANKS, everyone, for your support and positive words of encouragement! (Here's where I wish there was a smiley face with a heart that I could insert because I love you all!) The great thing was was that I didn't hang on to the guilty feeling at all yesterday. I let it go and had a really good day.

WW points - 32.5 (within my daily allotment)
Walked 2.0 miles!

Today is starting off great too. However, I am swamped at work right now and am feeling guilty about not having time to post in diaries. Maybe over the weekend I'll be able to confiscate the computer long enough to catch up with everyone.

T2 - I'm assuming you meant that whack for me rather than twinmom. In that case ... OUCH! :D
 
Great job getting your walks in! Sounds like you've been doing great for the most part. :D Its impossible to be perfect all the time and its so much harder when you're first starting out. Atleast I hope cause dang I'm having a hard time resisting temptation too! :p
Get that exercise in. When your body feels good you will want to feed it healthy food.

That is so great. It was a little hiccup, not a big belch :D It is so important to accept what has been done, realise that it is small in the grand scheme of things, and to not let it get you down. Well done!!
 
Darcy,

Great job just moving on and not beating yourself up. What's one cookie in all those days of success? Not much at all. Besides, nothing wrong with having a cookie now and then.

Have a wonderful weekend.
 
Oh boy! Cookies are a tough one to pass on. I am with everyone else on this one - I'm glad you have been able to shake it off and have a great day today!

There you go, another good day on the books. As long as you log in more good days than bad days you are going to do just fine.

Hope you are having an incredible weekend!
 
Ok, the weekend isn't going as well as I'd hoped. It is so hot and humid here that you just don't want to do anything except sit in front of the air conditioner. Friday was good until after work. I went out to eat and to a movie with friends, and of course I have a hard time eating properly when eating out. Didn't pig out but did have french fries and a dip of ice cream for dessert. Munched a bit too much this weekend and didn't keep track of my WW points, so I'm sure I was over my allotment - especially since I gave blood yesterday morning, and they always have all kinds of munchies to nibble on while you're waiting your 15 minutes before you can leave. I did go for a walk with my dad last night after the sun set, but it was only for one mile. It was too hot to go any further. I'm not looking forward to weighing tomorrow.
 
As the Pointer Sisters would say ... "I'm so excited, I just can't hide it!" I actually lost 1.5 pounds last week!!! :D Boy, I was sweating it (both figuratively and literally) when I weighed in this morning. I thought for sure that I had gained. I sure didn't feel like I'd lost. But I did! Yeaaaaaaa!! I get to change my ticker again! So ... with this feeling fresh in my mind, I'm thinking that this week should be strong. Back to counting my WW points and being good.
 
See, and you were all worried about it....and 1.5 pound gone...down the drain...never to be heard from again. Good going!!!!

Do I hear the sound of a tire deflating? :)
 
Congratulation an the 1.5lbs Darcy!! I think those drops are the nicest, when you are expecting the worst and ... BAMM! ... you get a great surprise.

Keep up the top job ;)
 
Seems like forever since I've updated this diary! Been so busy I haven't had time to check in. This week isn't going too badly. I think I've been doing fairly well, but I haven't had much time to keep track of my WW points or do my exercises unless you count running around like a chicken with its head cut off. :) I'm meeting a friend to walk tonight, and I plan to do my weight exercises in the morning. This weekend will be another challenge ... my town is celebrating its 125th birthday, and there is a big celebration all weekend. Parade, contests, entertainment, games, and LOTS of food. Hopefully it won't sabotage me too much ... I'm really looking forward to the activities.
 
Hey that's okay about being busy. We understand but just don't forget about us. Because we miss you when you're gone too long!!!!!

The celebration sounds like alot of fun. Like a nice little step back into Americana. Hope you enjoy yourself. And I'm sure you'll do fine with the food.

You just keep up the good work, keep on deflating!!!!
 
Sounds like you are going to have a great weekend. I love how Americans really celebrate things. I use to go across the boarder for the 4th of July just too see the fireworks. I bet you are going to have a lot of fun! Just try to get in as much water as you can and create that full feeling.

Have a super weekend!
 
Oh wow- that sounds like it's going to be a fun weekend! Maybe all of the entertainment will distract you from wanting to eat too much of the good food- But make sure you treat yourself to something!
 
Its good that you are looking forward to the activities, it should keep you busy and keep your mind off the food. Have a really great weekend :)
 
OK ... I need to get myself under control again. :mad: What with last weekend's celebrations and then eating out all this week with the search team that I'm on at work (we've been wining and dining applicants for an open director's position), I haven't been watching what I eat nor have I been getting in my exercising. Just too much going on. This whole week has just been a total wash-out! :( But everything's over with after tomorrow, so Saturday starts the "rebirth" again. I've been so busy that I haven't had time to come onto the forum, so I missed signing up for the next 2-week challenge. But that's OK because I would really like to get myself under control again before I join a challenge so that I don't sabotage my teammates. :D I'll shoot for the next time.

I'm looking forward to all of this search team stuff being over with because I'm actually getting tired of eating out! Never thought I'd ever say that! :D
