OHM! 4 Tuesday post...

If you are thinking...what the heck is OHM? Check out this post and then you will get it! We are ONE HOT MAMAS on Tuesdays and there are a handful of us working hard to shed some unwanted weight. Then you can check out these posts to catch yourself up: OHM! 1 OHM! 2 OHM! 3 I have been struggling myself these past week with making the right choices! I don't quite understand it, I suppose there is an underlying issue that I have with food that makes me think it OWES ME SOMETHING! Funny how we (those of us who could consider ourselves career dieters) cheat ourselves out of a healthy self-image over and over and over. It is a simple choice on most occasions...fast food or a salad, a soda or water, 13 donuts, 2 ice cream cones and an peach pie or an apple? Because I have overloaded you will info the last 4 weeks, I think this week should be a form of review. Go back, digest those last 4 links above, take notes, re-vamp your plans and put your nose to the grindstone. Count your calories - every stinking one of them Visualize a healthy body when you make healthy choices DON'T EVER GIVE UP! The biggest "nugget" (no, not a chicken nugget) I want to leave you with today is this: "If you dropped one egg while cooking, would you throw the whole dozen on the floor?" Probably not. So, if you have an "oops" during the day, DON'T GIVE UP, jump back on the wagon and prove to yourself that you can come back from a fall. I used to be a Monday-dieter, it was an anal thing I had about starting a diet. I could only start them on Mondays. So, God forbid I mess up on Tuesday, I would have Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday (and about 3 more pounds to lose) to HOG OUT before my diet started again. Don't make that mistake. If you fall off the wagon, hit the ground running! Review and revamp! See less of you next Tuesday! Leave your comments, weight loss, uh ohs, ah has, and words of encouragement for your weight loss buddies!

It cracks me up a little that NO ONE is checking into this thing. I think it is because we are not quite as motivated as we would like! So, I am also a "Monday" dieter, and this week I fell totally into the trap! I didn't even weigh myself yesterday due to a bad week and an unfortunate quacamole incident. I'm back on track now though (today anyway . . .)

Alright, I am back. It has been a rough couple weeks for me, sickness, and husband out of town, you know the drill. But, with all that I have lost 2 lbs. I am struggling with falling off the wagon, not writing everything down. I know I need to but I just don't make the time.
