I actually lost a pound this week, but it hasn't been easy. I have found that stress, and skipping a meal because of it, helps with weight loss. But that is not how I want to do it. I am trying to look at this, not as a diet, but as a way to eat for the rest of my life....and who wants stress? I have also discovered that skipping breakfast, or even not eating it until noon, does not help me. It is the eating later in the day that causes me to either gain or not lose. In an ideal world I would skip dinner, but I know that won't happen very often.
And my daughter makes fun of me because I have clothes in four different closets. I have out-of-season clothes, clothes that are too big, clothes I am going to get back into, and clothes I can wear right now. I may buy clothes that are tight, but never ones that don't fit at all. I may or may not have clothes with tags still on them, but my goal is now 10 pounds away. Of course, by the time I get into them they may be out of style.....
And way to keep the Willy Wonka theme going. Good luck this week.
I adore your writing,
There....I got that out of the way.
