Low Carb Diva

April 21, 2010

It's been two years since I started low carb and I am embarassed to admit that I still have not reached my goal weight. It just seems that I let life's inevitable stresses make me revert back to my old eating patterns. A one time cheat becomes weeks or months. Seriously it is harder to get back on track than to just sit with those feelings of wanting to scarf down all the carbs on a buffet table. This is what I want for the next 8 months left in 2010.

Follow up:

I want to remind myself when I feel smug and in control that I am one problem away from throwing away all of my hard work. I want to remember that one cheat does not mean I have to make it a three month carb blowout. Yes it will be hard the first few hours and days after the cheat but it is OK to feel like pigging out and not do it. I want to be under 200 pounds and reach my goals and milestones. I don't want to spend the rest of my life trying to lose weight. If you are struggling, make the commitment right now to get back on track.
