  1. Whether or not to tell is between you and your conscience
    and your waistline. LOL

    Ditto all the previous posts. For this to become a way of
    eating for life, you have to make mistakes, learn by
    experience, etc. And sometimes what you think is a bad
    week turns out not to be such a disaster on the scale.

    Don't get so angry with yourself that you quit in self-
    disgust. Use the energy of your anger to motivate
    yourself. No guilt, and move on.

  3. Hey Sharon, maintaining after your week sounds like a
    victory to me! Congrats for hanging in there and facing the
    music. Hope this week is a bit easier for you.

  4. I think I wrote about it here before. It was just before Christmas, I had a
    bunch of flex points left. I love egg nog anything. I went to Barnes and
    Nobel and DH got me the 24 ounce one. I figured 12 points in my head... He
    watched it being made and when we got home, we figured it out, I almost had
    a fit when it worked out to 18 points and I only really enjoyed the first
    half of it. I did have the points but I was learning the figure it before
    you feed it lesson. Lee

  6. Ah yes, I remember the story now. It's worth repeating for
    those of us who tend to panic when we're not perfectly on
    point or think that one or two over-point episodes will
    throw us back to our original weight overnight.
