14 down - 56 to go!!!
So...I know I said I would only weigh myself once a week on the cruise phase---BUT yesterday I was feeling bloated, and didn't think the scale was being fair - ok maybe not the scale -- my body.
This morning I weighed myself again - because- believe it or not my yoga pants felt loose- and they're stretch! Well, I was down another 0.6lbs from yesterday. So that makes my total loss 14lbs and a more manageable 56 to go. I will be a very happy girl when I hit my 50 mark! I will celebrate - sugar free Jello for all!
Speaking of which, I want to bring up the topic of socializing on the Dukan (or any diet). For me, socializing meant EATING & DRINKING!!! I was a VERY social person - how social? 70extra pounds social!!! I was the organizer, planner, party animal - however you choose to call it. I guess I was never fully committed to a lifestyle change because I associated the change as giving up my social lifestyle. So what happened? Well, to be honest- I think I just got older, got the partying out of my system, and found more important things to occupy my time. Also, I went back to being a (Masters) student, which meant giving up the extravagant lifestyle. No more dinners out with friends or nights out for drinks. I've changed my priorities- and you know what - I can honestly say that I'm happy- even with seltzer in my wine glass ;)
Tonight was my niece's 2 month bday. Well when there's birthday, cake is not far behind, and this time cannoli cake. As if cake wasn't bad enough, let's top it off with some sicilian pastry. I looked at it, but was not at all tempted- it was funny- instead of thinking that it looked delicious- I thought it looked "cute"! As if it was there for mere decoration- and in my case- it was. My brother was a bit upset that I didn't even "try" it. "Just take a small piece", he pleaded, but I was very firm and said that I can NOT have any sugar or carbohydrates. Just as if it was a medical restriction. He didn't like it, but you know what - he'll get over it! The more strict we are the greater discipline we will build for ourselves.
