A lot of us started in the new year and it is slowing down...anyone want to chime in with how you are doing?

I will start, I need a kick in the fat pants. It has been 9 weeks and going really well, for the most part, but I am losing my focus. I ate a bagel yesterday and a tortilla. A hamburger bun here and there. How about some Easter candy thrown in for good measure? I am wearing a smaller size pant and they got loose, so I feel thin...which is a total joke. I still have 85 pounds to go! I am not exercising either, I know that would help me "be in my body".
So, 26 lbs down, 85 to go...Tell me to GET REAL!

This is my second time around with this WOE and one thing I have learned is to forgive myself for cheating. I think if we sit around thinking we can never eat another tortilla or piece of real candy we will feel deprived. So we blow it once in a while and we pick ourselves back up and continue on down the road. So, desertbitch (I feel so funny calling you that, LOL) give yourself a pat on the back for all your good days and forgive the bad. Even your worse cheat days are probably better than every day before you started this WOE so in reality they are still success days and not failure days, right? You're doing great!
