From My Weight Watcher's Blog

I wrote this list in October and posted on my Weight Watchers Blog. I thought it would help me focus on the goal. I thought it would help to keep the prize in sight. At least that is what the book I was reading told me. After I posted the list, I didn’t go back to the blog or to WW. I couldn’t focus on anything, not the book or weight loss. That damn list crushed me with Expectations. I set myself up for another failure. Again. I have a hundred reasons for not losing weight; in November I got sick with my asthma, in December Christmas and in January well, grief and stress make for a bad time to start something…and on and on. I can’t do this anymore. How many times have I said that to myself and yet still cannot fight my food addiction. I dunno what do next except maybe burn all my diet books. That would make quite a bonfire if it weren’t illegal.  It really is one day at a time. No more lists or promises that’s a….never mind. Pass the carrot sticks.
