Yet Another Note To Self

Dear Self,

This is hard. If it were easy, everyone would be fit and thin and there are a whole lot more people like you out there than like jazzercise leaders. The thing is, you have to plan.

If you're going to be active, and you know this, know that you're going to be hungrier and do something before you're desperate. Try the fiber supliment thing from the book. Make yourself another garden burger or eat three yogurts instead of one. All those choices would be better than sneaking out and having a cheeseburger and fries.

If you MUST MUST MUST have one, then have one. Don't beat yourself up or freak out or do it more than once a month, tops. But for chrissake, try other things before going out for the cheesburger.

And remember: don't let yourself get hungry, but nobody said that you could do this without being crabby. Hungry and jonesing are not the same feeling. Learn to tell the difference.

I'm back in the saddle, peeps. Momentary lapse. Bad choice. I give it up and start again right now.

Self: Good job so far. Don't dissapoint me. You're the only one you hurt.
