Day 12
The hardest part about dieting is saying “No” to myself all
the time.
Wednesday night I had my last Diet Mountain Dew. I’m trying to go on in life without that
delicious nectar of the Gods. I’m going
to miss it! It’s soooo bad for me tho so
I really need to say “No” to it and move on to healthier options.
Right now I have a caffeine withdrawal headache going on. I hope it doesn’t take too long to pass but it
could. I’ve been using caffeine as a
daily staple in my diet for many years now so it could take some time for my
system to clear.
Yesterday, day one of NO DIET DEW future, we had an employee
appreciation luncheon at work. I walked
in the room and saw a 2 ltr of Diet Dew sitting there. Today Angie admitted she’d gotten that
because she knew I drank it and it’d get drunk.
Well, it won’t be drunk by me. L I had 2 tacos for lunch. I did not have pop. I did not have a cookie for dessert. I said “No”.
Today is Friday, AKA donut day at this place. I allow myself my Friday donut. It’s one of the things that bring me joy in
life! Plus Penelope ate the last of my
Belvita cookies. I need to get more of
those.
Then at lunch today, I put my lunch in the microwave and
looked at the display of donuts, chocolates, leftover candy bars from this
whole employee appreciation thing they’ve been doing all week (I’ve gotten
candy every day – I’ve also eaten it – I lack self control). I picked up a Mounds bar and put it on my
napkin. I read the news while my food
heated. I got everything together to
take back to my desk but I finally paused.
I put the Mounds bar back. I
couldn’t! My diet is working despite my
not behaving strictly to the code! I love
that my weight is going down. Much as I
want that Mounds bar, it’s not worth stalling my weight reduction. It’s happening and I felt good about that
this morning when I got on the scale.
I finally have something happening to help offset my
feelings of deprivation. They are there and
will be but now I wear my belt tighter and it’s comfortable. Now my scale # is decreasing. My clothes feel a bit looser. It’s been hard won. I can’t stop now!
