Thank you so much wi_fighter. Your encouragement means a lot. I just hate the way my resolve disappears with the first wrong mouthfull.

I think I am ready, and boy do I have reasons - know I just need to "follow-through". I give up on this too easily and keep saying - oh well I'll start tomorrow. Um, all the tomorrow's have seen about 50 extra pounds creep up. (Ok, the first few were med related and a couple are thyroid related - but still ..).

Thanks for making me feel less guilty for having a bad day - even if every day is a bad day at the moment. And LOL - I doubt I will ever get sick of junk food. Fortunately I can't afford it too often.

I hardly ever touch sweets and chocolates but chips and bread and the high carb forbidden goodies are my downfall.

Maybe I should ditch the diary and go with my instincts. I think I am placing so much pressure on myself with the diary.

Rambling now ...
