Ok, I'm really not giving up. Although, seriously, this lack of willpower makes me sick. Not so much because I'm eating bad foods, but because I KNOW I can do this. I've done it before and hardly ever cheated. Now it seems like when I'm tempted I just give in and I hate that.
Anyway, I'm still going to attack this one day at a time, so despite all of my badness this week, today, Friday, I'm still going to start the day "on" the diet. I weighed myself this morning 158.5, so if I keep it up, I could still lose weight this week. For me, I think the key is that even though I haven't been obeying "all" of the rules, at least I'm thinking of them every single day. And instead of eating crap at every meal (like when pregnant), I'm only eating like that on occasion.
Goals for today. Drink all water! Focus on dinner. Cook those turkey cutlets when I get home. Really attempt the treadmill (I've got loads of housework, mostly laundry, so it me hard to find time.
Thoughts for next week. Consider having 2 free days, Wednesday and Saturday, so maybe I can be perfect the other days. On the Wednesday free day only lunch and dinner can be cheated on. No extra snacks or anything. Or I suppose I could get in gear and just do better every day!
HORRIBLE day at work. No time to cheat. Came home with a massive migraine and napped for an hour and a half. Didn't do the dinner I planned, but it could have been worse. I seriously need to work on my water intake.

We all know you can do it! You just have a few more obstacles in your life now. I think adding a couple free meals helps, too. You can't quit anything totally cold turkey. There are still those bad things that we need in our life on occassion, we are just being more conscious about it now. As I sit here drinking my non-fat mocha, before I never would have dreamed of going to Starbucks and getting "non-fat", now I'm okay with it. You cut out the extra cals in different areas. Think of all the cals you were getting before we started this competition and you weren't as conscious of it... That's scary for all of us!
