Well the diet wasn't working. I wasn't getting anywhere nearer to being a 'Little less round nice girl :-)' (thanks Mike)I was getting miserable about it and looking at some recent photos made me grimace. It was once again my counselling course that helped me. We looked at action planning and setting goals in a helping relationship. In threes we had to tlak through an issue that we had and set goals. It was cathartic. It was good to be honest about my issues with weight and the way I can lie to myself about what I am eating. I am queen of 'one more won't hurt' as I shove another biscuit in my mouth. I have a sweet tooth and I LOVE food. E-Diets wasn't doing it. I was accountable to no-one but myself and it was easy to skip weigh in. So my group set a goal for me to join Weight Watchers before we meet again next Wednesday. Being the tight fisted Capricorn that I am the 'join free' before 28th May spurred me on and I found a local meeting the next day.
Surprisingly it was all OK. The people are normal, the leader is a real person with a sense of humour and the plan is fab. I've stuck to it so far and I even managed to have a bit of my boss' birthday cake. Now that's what I call a diet! H x
