245.4

Fell off the P17X program and it cost me.  We finally broke down and had the chicken wing meal that the Marinucci family had been craving for months.  We went to P.T.'s and, while I hate to admit this, it was really really good.  I won't go in to details because talking about food seems to be somewhat contradictory to the purpose of this blog and several readers have complained that they read my blog and end up more hungry after I start talking about food!  The good news is that I have learned to let these bad nights go a lot quicker than I was and I now have extreme confidence that they are small roadblocks that I will overcome quickly.  My only disappointment might be that I would like to stop having them days before my monthly check-ins!  Oh well...

  1. So I'm a total dweeb. I've read your comment on my progress pictures post about 15 times. It makes me smile every time. Thank you so much for your encouragement. And you're inspiration. Even though I think you're a little too hard core, you do keep me going. I mean, I can't let you get TOO far ahead of me. haha. ;) Seriously, though. Thank you. And kudos to you on all of your progress.

  2. Its okay Anthony....but look at it this way, it is probably better to know how much that food does cost you when you eat it for weight gained....this way you can change your mindset and realize how just a little here and there can hurt....am I making sense? That is so me, I think well just one meal, what is it going to hurt? but in actuality it hurts alot. Good for you making these strides. Lookin good my friend, lookin good! ;0)

  3. Your welcome Heather! I fully understand all of the emotions that come with this and even though I don't even know you I still find myself rooting with all my heart for your success... especially hoping that you can lose as much as possible before your nuptials. I know I seem hardcore at times. But, believe me I have not always been this way and the alternative never seemed to work. I will say that it might be an age thing. Maybe if you were as old as me you might understand the urgency and fear that startst to set in as you realize you are slowly killing yourself. That urgency has lead to my current approach. In the end, I think turning my life around from borderline diabetic blood test scores to the place I am today is validation of how well the hardcore approach has worked for me. I still maintain a nice level of modesty about all of this and my "hardcore" attitude does not transcend to my interactions with others... a pet peeve of yours. Thanks for the support and comment. See you at the finish line!

  4. Yes, Tilda, all of my mistakes are converted in to days lost as soon as I see the results. It is the little here and there that bothers me still. I really was okay with going for wings Sunday. My issue was that I planned to eat a few less and was actually full about four wings before I stopped eating. The chicken wing dinner will continue to happen. I just want to learn to stop eating when my body tells me so. And, yes, you made perfect sense. Thanks for the support girl!
