Donut Diet

Attention: If you're trying to lose weight, The Donut Diet is not, I repeat, NOT, the way to go. :) I've had this absolute obsession with donuts the past few days. Well, sugar in general, but particularly donuts. I'm eating them in mass quantity. They are such mindless fluff that you can eat them in about 2 seconds and want more. At least I do. Not good. Not good at all. So I show up at Weight Watchers today after 6 weeks of not going and find out I've gained 6.2 pounds. Not only that, but since I started going 7 months ago, I've now managed to lose a total of 5.6 pounds. That's not good either. That's like 3/4 of a pound a month. I guess it's better than having gained massive amounts of weight, but it's really indicative of the games I've been playing. Enough already! Of course, having written this, I want more donuts. :( Time to start tracking food again, absolutely. Today's "nutritious" day of food so far is:
  • mini whole wheat bagel with cheese
  • cinnamon caramel latte
  • donut
  • another donut
  • ham and cheese quiche
  • potato salad.
Not exactly stellar nutrition, especially when you consider it's only 3:20 and I've still got 6 hours of potential damage to do. I don't even want to know the Weight Watchers points on all that. Nope, I don't. I want to be like an ostrich with his head buried right now. And then just forget that the Donut Diet ever happened and go forward to learn new habits. It's interesting, because my Soul Coaching book (that I've been too busy to do) has me (if I was doing it) in the middle of Earth Week, and the topic I'm next to do is Body Detox. It's asking me to give something up, do something healthy food-wise, or eliminate something not healthy. Yes, I've been really busy and unable to commit time to the book, but I know that a small part of me also wants to avoid having to face that. Well, I'm going to face that tomorrow. I'm putting this out there, so now I have to do it. :)

Balance is a struggle - I'm struggling too.

I miss your voice here. I hope that you are well.

I'm sorry you're struggling too. I know this is a hard time of year for you - know that I'm thinking of you and sending virtual hugs.

At least your nudge got me to post again. :)
