Pulling myself back together

So this morning I got on the scales and I weighed 232.6!!! Ouch!!! I'm up 6.0 lbs. from last Wednesday. Yes, some is water weight, but some of it is probably true weight gain. This past weekend I had pizza and almost two half-gallons of ice cream. I estimated that I had over 4,000 calories on Saturday alone.

Here is where I am now... Have you ever had your car run out of gas? You start it, it will run for a minute and then crap out? You start it again and it just spits, sputters, then dies again? No matter what you do you just can't get it to stay running? That's me on my diet right now. I start out great in the morning and cruise all through the day. Dinner is fine, too. Somewhere between dinner and bedtime I go crazy and eat everything in sight. By the end of the day I've had 3,000 calories. Next day I wake up and repeat the day before. False starts every day. Ugh!!! What I can say is that today, for the first time since getting sick a few weeks ago, I walked on the treadmill.

So when I weigh in on Wednesday, I'm going to be comparing those numbers to the numbers on the scale today. This way I can measure my efforts over the past 2 days versus my total meltdown over the weekend. Does that make any sense? LOL As of today I'm recommitting myself to this whole thing.

Thank you to all of my readers and especially to those who leave comments. Without you I'd have probably abandoned this diet months ago. Y'all keep me honest! :-)
