Well, I was on a diet and doing really well, but I have slipped. I have to get back on that horse. I am like a food-a-holic. Now, some of you might scoff at the thought of that. I know, we need food to survive, but we do not need junk food to survive. So, maybe I am a junkfood-a-holic then. I love to eat anything chocolate, ice cream, doughnuts, anything sugary and sweet is my downfall. I like salty things too, but they don’t control me the same way.
So, for a while I was not eating anything chocolate (except for my mocha latte, gotta have the coffee) or anything processed for the most part. That means no pasta, no cheese, no chips, no ice cream, etc. Only eating things like any vegetable as long as it is not fried, any meats also not fried, any fruits (not fried?). I could eat as much of these things as I want, on my own personal diet plan. This diet has worked for me in the past, I just have to stick to it for it to work. Oh, also no butter or margarine added to things, you can use Butter Buds on steamed veggies and that is real good.
So, I was doing good at this, until I went to the beach the other weekend. One morning it was doughnuts for breakfast. So it was either eat that or nothing, or raid the refrigerator for something else and be rude. So I ate one single doughnut, covered with chocolate and filled with cream! MMmmmmm. It was good, and from that point on, the diet was gone.
See, I am a food-a-holic. It is not okay for me to have something bad once in a while. Is it okay for an alcoholic to have a drink once in a while? Or a druggie to have a sniff once in a while? No, it is not, that will push them off their rocker! So I have to start this diet once again, and not go off it. I should have opted for nothing at all, in that case. I will try again. But I am not ready yet. I have to get ready again. I will. Before the next grocery store trip. My problem is this, I just went to the store yesterday and bought bad things. So, when those things are gone, that will be it again. This I vow!

We each have to find what works for us...I wish you luck!
I'm working my way through all the junk food in the house with the same promise. After this lot is gone the diet starts.... (again)
Good luck with it.
OH MAN! I feel ya. I have the same problem. I am trying to diet and it just isn't working. *sigh* i mean, I am watching what I eat but I don't lose. And I am seriously addicted to sugar. BIG TIME. So I get that too.
Glad the boys skin is better. How scary for you. Scarlet fever? Who knew it was even still around?! I am so glad he's feeling better!
