For two weeks I have been floundering. At first, I tried throughout much of the day to plan my meals and stick to my plan. However, when the evening came, I would just blow it entirely and binge. Over the past few days...I've really not even tried and have given in to every impulse and eaten whatever I thought I wanted. Today has been no exception. So far...I've had candy, soda, a danish, a high-cal burrito from a vending machine at work, more candy (and expect I'll have more candy tonight while passing it out to all the little trick-or-treaters). I've got big 'ol meaty, country-style pork ribs in the oven right now and can barely wait 'til their finished! I won't be weighing or measuring the meat out. I plan to eat ribs 'til I've had my fill. I gained another 1.8 pounds at my weigh in yesterday and just lost my drive. The past two weeks have sucked (not only diet-wise)! I struggled so much that I just finally gave in. Now, I've already completely screwed up the day (and have MORE than used my weekly points allowance) and have DECIDED to just do whatever I'm gonna do and start all over tomorrow. I don't know if that's the best strategy to embrace, but I know there's no hope for me collecting myself today. The best I can hope for (at this mindset) is to get a fresh start in the morning.

Hey, Cheri! I sent you a DM, but just wanted to comment here, too. I appreciate your willingness to be honest so much. It's hard to do, but it is a sign of a heart that will persevere--no matter how many Potholes are in the road along the way--to thin. We're gonna make it, gilrfriend, yes we are! Deb
