Yesterday I spoke about control and how for the first time, in a long time, I felt in control. Yesterday I was in control, today not so much. On the plus side I had a Pilates session followed up with an hour and a half massage. Outstanding start to my day. I left the Wellness Center, where I get my massage, with a spring in my step and a smile on my face. I took a shower and thought about going to the pool but got distracted by the TV. It was all down hill from there.
As wonderful it is that I've started working out, the other half of my problem is my diet. I eat fairly well. In the past two weeks I've started eating much healthier than usual. Grabbing for an apple instead of getting ice cream, spacing my meals well and feeling satisfied all day.
But then there are the days when ice cream sings it's siren song and I ended up telling Michael that I have enough points and Carvel is allowed. Or when I go all day eating well only to finish it off with some cookies (far more than a serving), it's tough for me and my self control blows.
Any suggestions?

Life is balance grasshopper. You can't expect yourself to be mother theresa of pilates and weight watchers. you shouldn't paint your carvel or cookies as failure - rather you should have them as reward and be honest with yourself about how many or how much you have. I know weight watchers is points, a line in the sand, but life isn't like that. You are here, now, alive and succeding. Be patient, be kind to yourself, and keep moving forward. Remember, a few weeks ago you weren't doing anything - now you are at pilates, bicycling, walking and counting points. Balance :)
