Don't Be Afraid of the Scale: Redux

Guess what happens when you pretend that you can eat like you used to?

1) You gain weight
2) You avoid the scale
3) You panic
4) You avoid the scale and feel guilty for avoiding the scale
5) You finally get on the scale and freak out
6) You shake yourself by the scruff of the neck
7) You remember everything you've learned since you started this.

And so, LIW 183 and Present weight 182. So that's not so bad is it?

It's time to start thinking about round TWO. I have a couple of conferences and trials to get through in May. Then I think I'll begin R2P2 (which is really phase 1 but we all know what I mean).

I liked the structure of it, P2. I am wondering what will happen this round, since I basically blew off P3 entirely. Well not ENTIRELY but we all know what I mean.

In any sense, there's no way out but through. No need for self-recrimination, no need for the attempt to fool myself - or you guys - which means it's time to blog more and eat less.

Today was breakfast in bed with eggs, bacon and toast and coffee. Husband is a darling.

Now am full. REALLY full. Working on a report so it will be interesting to see munching/grazing habits that come into play today.

Sorry for my absence. I have been absent from conscious eating and I have allowed my work life to interfere in my conscious eating life.

So I'm back.
