Hi, everyone:

I recognize that no one is posting, but what the heck, it's the holidays.

It started with that dream of Eggs Benedict last Sunday night and just went downhill after that; ending yesterday with me finding my husband's stash of chips and nachos. Oh, and I also needed a "taste" of the rum and bourbon soaked fruit cake. I tell you all this because I AM a food addict. If it's there I will eat it. I threw away the chips as well as the $50 fruitcake. You know I am serious now.

Then, I had to have a LO-O-O-O-NG talk with myself today and reflect over the past 4 months of what I have been doing and how my routine has helped me lose 37 pounds. You know, after I weighed myself, that's when all of this nonsense happened. But, I can't "un-weigh" myself. Those numbers stay in my head. I try to tell myself, "It's NOT over, Yvonne!! You are NOT finished yet! Keep going!"

It's my old self getting the better of the "what I want to be" self. Today, I have been faithful to Cambridge, I did my exercycle and abdominals and started to think about the remainder of the day. I have been stressed (but who hasn't been lately?). All I know is that Cambridge is a modified fast with all the good nutrients in it and I need to understand that concept instead of sliding back into my old mindset.

Anyway, I just wanted to vent and I love this Board to do that.

Hang in there folks! I am not perfect but today I am going to try to be.
