Where's the Paddle

A paddle you may ask??? Well it's because so far I'm completely playing ping pong with my weight. Today I feel awful and have a full blown cold. I'm bloated, constipated, sore throat, itchy throat, watery eyes and frankly a walking Nyquil commercial. I get in the car and haul my over 200lb. butt to my meeting just hoping that there will be some light on this trip. I'm completely hunched over walking in there because my lower back feels like it's out. I get up to the counter, take off my shoes and coat. Get on the scale and find that I have gained 2.2 lbs. I'M NOT KIDDING!!!!! I wanted to just leave the meeting and go back to bed but in my mind I really wanted to go and eat, eat,eat. I didn't! Glad I stayed even though the leader tonight is not my usual one and she talked at a volume of 10 and I felt like if I didn't agree she would hurt me : ) She lost 82 lbs in 2000 and still has it off so "Go Jane of the Jungle" I'll listen. When I'm sick I always feel better when I'm comforting myself with food. I decided "not this time" . I hadn't eaten dinner and my 21 day challenge is not eating after 8 therefore I went to Boston Market and had 5oz. of turkey, green beans, mashed potatoes and water. I had 19 points left today and enjoyed the warm food. I left and forced myself around the track at Warren while waiting to take Jack and Olivia home. I looked like a puff a lump but I did my thirty minutes and felt like my back loosened up a bit.
Pray for a emptying of my system and a good potty trip : )

I'm not discouraged (really) frustrated with my body (yes) Looking forward to next week's weigh in (yes) I've been exercising and eating to plan. That will pay off.

Good Better Best, We Shall Not Rest, Until Good Becomes Better and Better Becomes Best
