“The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”. Albert Einstein

For some reason, I'm inclined to give myself too much breathing (cheating) room when I taste success. That is why other people on this protocol (Hormonallychallengedgal) can lose 80 pounds since August, and I've lost as little as I have since June. Now, I realize that each person is different, but I have got to step up to the plate. I ate like a mad woman yesterday and thank goodness I'm only up .4. I am going to have to open up that cookbook and get creative with different meals if I am going to make it through the boredom of the palate choices.

There are no excuses for doing what I'm doing other than I must not believe I am worth the efforts. Am I afraid? I have no idea. I just know that I'll never move forward if I do not get off my bum and give it an earnest effort.

With that said, we have company coming this weekend and next and I know I won't stick to protocol.....or choose not to. However you look at it. So, between now and Saturday, I'm going to have to pull together what I can. Take a break, then back at it M-F (with earnest efforts) and take a break next weekend and back at it until I hit the 20 pound mark. Period. That's my goal. That is what I've pledged to do, that is what I NEED to do. My starting weight before loading was 210. If I can make it to 190, I will be satisfied in taking a 6 week break.
