Stupid story. I went to an herbal weight loss clinic in town. The lady took me through all the forms and questionnaires and then weighed me. I totally freaked. I was 17 pounds heavier than I was a few months ago. Then, when it came to pay the piper, it was going to cost over 700 dollars just to get on this program, not to mention the 50 plus dollars a week in herbs! Stupid. I told her very politely that I could not afford that and got out of there as soon as I could.
I got home feelin stupid and horrible. John picked a fight with me when I was so upset (typical). He thinks that everything should be completely based on logic and that feeling bad was useless. He's right, but he doesn't understand that things are sometimes based on EMOTION - and not logic. As a woman, is this a guy thing? Why does everything have to be so technical? Are we not allowed to feel?
Anyway, I weighed myself this morning, and the scales said I'm only 10 pounds over. I guess at the clinic having clothes and having eaten breakfast made a difference.
So, now I'm 10 pounds over but I'd love to lose 15 or 20.
The problem: I'm not a very good dieter. I'm always falling off the wagon and eating stuff I'm not supposed to.
Anyone with gems of advice? How do I stay on the wagon?
I really want to lose 4 pounds by Christmas. 2 weeks. If I go to the gym lots and be uber good, I think I can do it. Encouragement would be very welcome here!
