Holy crap!!! That's all I can say. I stepped on the scale tonight and it actually said 218!! 218!!! That's a freakin pound a day I lost! These last 4 or so days have gone pretty well. My last mistake involved a huge apple fritter. Trust me, not pretty. But since then, it's been going well. I did decide that trying the low-calorie thing was not working for me. Too much counting and having to think about it constantly, not to mention I felt starving all the time.
I boldly say that I am going to try out the Adkins diet. It's not been a diet that I believed in firmly, but it does give me a little more freedom to eat things that I like. Meat, cheese, and eggs. And butter, mayo.... things like that. I'm not gonna lie, I've been craving the bread and sweets like crazy, but getting to eat hot wings on a diet is sorta kick ass. I realize that I can't give up carbs forever, but when I get to my goal weight (yes I said "when" and not if), I will have to figure out how to keep up with some maintenance. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it I guess.
I suppose this week wasn't a complete waste like I thought it would be. I set myself up for failure and for the first time, I didn't fail. I realize that next week may have a different outcome, but hey, it works for now.
It's all I can ask for.
