That worked. I dropped 1.6 but I don't think I'm in the clear. Yesterday, I ate hardly anything. I skipped breakfast and snack. For Lunch, I had a protein shake and an apple. No afternoon snack. Supper was a large steak cooked in evoo (extra virgin olive oil) and a large leafy salad done dry. I had an evening snack of peanuts and then hubby had a bowl of cookies.....yes I ate one :( It can be so hard when it (it being anything you know you can't eat but really want!) is sitting right in front of you. Honestly, it was easier to turn away when I was on the drops. Then, I had the greater fear of gaining but now...I don't know...It is just harder now. Today I am focusing on getting all my calories in and eating the right foods to get there. It may have worked to drop it down for one day but I don't want to send my body into a pendulum state swinging this way and that. Part of my problem is I stopped counting calories and stopped recording my foods in general. Then I added bad foods without evening seeing how much I was adding in calories. I probably could have had the 'treats' (aka junk) if I had at least made sure I was within my allowed calories...but noooo....just stuffed it in, LOL. Good Grief! Oh well, it is done now. I'm on the mend (mentally) and didn't have to do a steak day. So no major harm done. I think I will highlight this part of my journey on my sheets. A stark reminder of just how easy it is to go flying off the track and also how, through determination alone, I can pull myself back! (I hope hubby finishes those cookies soon!)
