So, in Greek Mythology there's this guy Sisyphus who thinks himself smarter than the god Zeus and for his punishment he is given the task of pushing a boulder up a hill and at the last minute the boulder rolls back down and he has to start again. Forever. I think I've felt like that about my weight. But I'm going to keep going till I get that damn boulder over that hill. Right now the hill is 20 pounds. I will get there.
Today was fine. Boring actually. No earth-shattering revelations or decisions. And not much work. But I am fighting a cold/allergies and that was the excuse I used to NOT get up and out of bed to walk this morning. *sigh* But I did stay in my points. And ate good food. And I will not beat myself up for it. Just being real.
I always feel good when I walk, but I have to get myself up in the morning to do that. Habits. ...
I tried the Smart Ones Quesadilla tonight. They were very good. I had a salad and the quesadillas and water. And now I'm figuring out what I want for dessert. Because I want something sweet and because I still have the points.
The rest of the day I pretty much had what I've been having. Yogurt, sandwich, carrots, diet soda. I can pretty much eat the same food for a while. I'm weird like that. But I find comfort in knowing that I'll not be going over my points. And THAT can be a habit.
One day. One pound. One step/boulder at a time.
