well i'm only a half pound up now from my initial weigh-in. I did go to the gym this morning. I have realized I have no willpower. There's candy everywhere here, I don't even think about how it's not going to help me lose weight, I just want the instant gratification. And then I'm grumpy when my pants are tight. Duh. When I started my first real job in the summer of 1999, a couple coworkers were trying to lose weight unsuccessfully. I was the intern, so I was sent out frequently for Dunkin Donuts runs. after a month of them trying to lose weight while I got them frappucinos three times a week, something clicked for them as they are drinking the frap and commiserating, all of a sudden the light bulb dings and they realize maybe cutting back on the fraps will help. I need to keep thinking of them so I remember that tea is better than candy no matter how much I want it at that moment.
I have apples and carrots and a Kashi meal here at work, there is no reason why I either should go out or have the pizza I know is coming today for lunch. No pizza when I've already eaten a healthy lunch.
And TL - F*ck the scale is right - I actually weigh more right now than I did when we started this contest a couple years ago, but a couple years ago, I was not fitting into the pants I'm wearing now. They are a little tighter than they were last year at this time, but they still fit. It's very strange. But proof that the scale is not reliable, it's how the clothes fit that is.
