Faced the music...

...and it wasn't pretty!!

After a week of being sick, not logging and not caring, the scale put me in my place. I was up 3.6 lbs this week! An embarrassing story because I like to overshare.... Yesterday I decided I would go to panera for a bagel and cream cheese. After I ordered that, I though ahhhh throw in a bear claw....oh yeah, sure I need something to drink so why not a frozen caramel. I had no intention of logging yesterday but when I did I was shocked! That trip to panera was my WHOLE DAYS WORTH OF POINTS!!!! 44 points without even thinking! Uhhhh lesson learned though. 

So today I am back on track. Still not feeling 100% but I'll get there. I'm following my points this week! No 44 pt meals! No absolute craziness. I'm going to be accountable and definitely see a loss next week. I'm shooting for 5 lbs.

The leader today had on the board "Failure is the key to success. Each mistake teaches us something." She said that to her, it was incomplete though. She added "if we are willing to learn from it."  That is 100% true. And 100% relevant to me especially this week. Thank you to Kelly and my May Moms who pushed me to go to my meeting today. I definitely needed it and it wound up being the perfect topic. I shared about my week and got teary eyed...but it felt good being honest about what I was feeling. 

Send me responsible eating vibes :)
