Change Up

This week I have followed the HCG diet. After 5 days...I am done. I am changing back to the weight watcher diet. I just can't do the diet they want you to follow. I did lose 6 lbs so far this week, so it isn't that it doesn't work...I just don't want my mind to be on food 24/7.
Last night I was so done...I fell off the wagon. I had a handful of taco chips and married them with some salsa...it was heaven.
So today I am off to the grocery store to stock up. I want to get the goodies to make me some soup. In the winter I could live off the stuff....and tonight I will have my way.
You know it is okay to admit defeat. I do it all the time. Sometimes I let the task go I can't do ...then the next day I am back to it again....and I win. I just pick my battles. Defeat sometimes is good, we learn our weakness, and best of all for me; I reach out to God and ask for help. Hard jobs/task/personal goals teach us we can do things we didn't think we were capable of completing. I want to be a winner....but in the diet world...being a winner is hard....bloody hell! (Pardon the bad language)
Maybe that is why "New Year’s Resolutions” were created? Okay, I doubt it.
Mercy, next week and for weeks to come...working 5 days a week, no holidays!! By the time Memorial Day arrives...we all will be crazy ready for paid time off.
I think I need to start thinking of vacation time! oh yes I do!!
I can't wait to do my taxes and see if old Uncle Sam will owe me some money. I know I have to pay down some debt...but I also would love to take some of that cash and go back out to California and visit my brother! I went there last March and it was a great break. So we will see what happens.
Well I am off to the dealership...again. Dang it they better get this done...'cause I am about done with them.....
Then off to get some food!! oh yeah baby....Food!
Blessings,

Ah, yes, food. The New Year is barely a week old, so maybe it's too early to call this "defeat." I say go easy on yourself and call it a "setback."

I saw your very sweet offer on my blog and I know you meant it. It's so nice to know you have my back! Thank you, thank you.

I think the word diet alone is a trigger for failure. Diets don't usually work. Lifestyle changes do. I think this is why weight watchers does work for a lot of people...it's not a "diet", it's more of a lifestyle change. Just something to think about.
