Liar Liar

I am breaking "the rules" in my fourth month of my little game here. I said I would weigh-in NO MATTER WHAT. Well, it's WHAT, yes, donkeys are flying and hell is freezing over (or at least if feels like it outside). Although, my state of mind is a bit better, it is "my time" again and I could not bear another week of defeat and hopelessness on the scale.

I dragged myself to the gym kicking and screaming (in my head, of course) but I managed to sweat it out today. All my great work this morning was followed by pick, pick, picking on whatever carbs I could find hanging around the kitchen this afternoon. This occurred only after seeing the jewelry making lady this afternoon, who has been a bit chubby too for as long as I've known her....yes, it makes me feel good! Well, this lady just lost 15 pounds and looks awesome. She told me she stays low on the carbs and refined sugars. Why did I just indulge in those carby treats then, just don't know! After I felt completely sickened by what I just did and undid, my smiling, freckly, seven year old rang the doorbell with a "Hi Mom, this is for you" and handed me a paperback copy of "Skinny Bitch". I want to thank my dear friend for driving my boy home and for having him deliver the book to borrow, as promised. Timing, however, is everything! At least, I'm smiling. I will take it with me to my son's appt. and begin to read in the waiting room. I hope I get motivated. I am flailing in the wind here!
