I will NOT give in... well, not any further... !!

I am HUNGRY after work tonight, and having just found out yesterday that I GAINED 2.5lbs in the last week, I am doing my best to avoid eating everything in the kitchen!! I have had 2 grapefruit since coming home from work, and about 10 grissini (and trust me: I really do want to eat the rest of them..!), and have decided to quit at that... The saving grace of all this late-night food is that I have WORKED tonight - running all over the store, climbing up & down ladders, lifting cases of drinks (well, ok, that was this morning - but it's still exercise and it still counts!). I have done enough physical exercise today to excuse - if not quite justify - my late night snack!

So now it's time to get serious again. Come next Thursday I now need to have lost the 2.5lbs I gained this week, PLUS lose at least another couple of lbs if I'm going to stay on track. I would LOVE to be at 200lbs by Thanksgiving (+/- 6 weeks away), but that may be completely unrealistic - it would mean losing an average of 3 or more lbs per week between now & then, something I really don't see happening. It's great to have dreams, though!
