Need an a$$ whooping!

Somebody snap me out of it! I've been carb crazy!!! I was on vacation for 10 days and ate more carbs than I normally do, nothing outrageous though. The next week I was PMSing and I lost control, then this past week I had no damn excuse! I don't like feeling like my old behaviors are creeping back in and I'm petrified that I'm going to derail all my efforts and gain all the weight back. I'm 1 pound away from my lowest adult weight ever, and that was after a stint on weight watchers and I could never break past this point, then it started creeping back when I gave up. The craziest part is that I've lost 16 pounds in the past 2 1/2 weeks. WTF?!?! It's like I'm getting rewarded for being an asshole and the devil on my shoulder is like "just have the donut, it's no big deal!" Help!

Relax. Tomorrow is another day. Eat your protein first, all 30 grams minimum of it, and then have some veggies. THEN have a bite or two of carbs. You'll be fine.

Okay, smack upside the head while in my best Cher voice, Snap outta it!

You can do this. Carbs are the enemy!

ooh, I love that movie.

there is much in what EN says: relax!! (it's easy to SAY, isn't it?)

the more you stress about it, the harder it is.

Yes, that's true, the anxiety over it just makes me want to eat more crap. Blargh. Trying to get my head screwed on straight today and just eat lots of meat
