Soooooo.... about the NO SWEETS thing: Literally, I've only had one strike (remember the sample instinct?). But in my heart, I haven't been as hard core as I could have been. I was required to eat a snickerdoodle cookie in my foods class--I was not, however, required to eat the cookie dough...but I did. I could have resisted eating the chocolate cake at a dinner party (but my mother convinced me it was a special occasion! I blame her. I don't even care about chocolate). My mom's birthday was a special occasion, but I could have skipped out on the second party I went to--especially since the birthday girl didn't even get a piece ;(~ Then we had another celebration at our house and I stuffed myself with a sinfully, delicious lemon/vanilla quadruple layered cake.
BUT my father doesn't seem to take this deal too strictly either! He was going to let me eat graham cracker cookies. "They're crackers." he said. I just shook my head. If he would excuse something like that, I don't feel so terrible...but I wonder what he's allowed himself to eat.
But hey, I've lost about two pounds! I didn't even expect that.
Now about the FOCUS thing: ...yeeeeeaaaaa...no success so far. Progress is really, really...really stale. I'm more challenged than I thought. What I need is a reminder to focus. I just forget to try and fight it and by the time I remember, it's too late--I've missed the story. So, I'm still working on that.
Sorry about all the bold and italics...and "dot-dot-dots".
But not too sorry because I feel they add emphasis and emotion. It loosely represents my state of mind.
Well, I'm off to accomplish!
