Does it Ever Get Easier?

Week 3

I weighed in again on Thurs 6/30.  I lost another 1.4 pounds, which has put my total at 2.6 pounds for the last two weeks.  I love how my Weight Watcher site log gives me little praises and tells me good job.  Makes me not so depressed.  Don't get me wrong I love that my friends are there to encourage me too, but they are all losing more than I am, which makes me feel like I'm failing and wanting to shove a piece of chocolate cake in their mouth.

The weekends are the hardest.  When I'm at work I can control myself and portion what I eat.  At home...it's a free-for-all and a downright battle not to go through a drive thru or order a big cheesy pizza!  In three days I cheated 4 times and ate foods that were waaaay to high on my point list.  I made up for some of them in exercise and got some of my points back, but I feel so guilty about the rest!  I feel like I've fallen off the bandwagon or like I've set myself up to fail at this week's weigh in.

I'm back at work now and am focusing on getting myself back on track.  I want to get myself back in order before Thursday.  I know everyone is saying that losing a pound is great, but it's on the greater end of the sucking scale for me.  I want to be like those around me and lose more than a stinking pound.  Of course then I have weekends like this last one and realize why I haven't lost anything.  Ugh.

Does it ever get easier?  Will I always go ballistic on the weekends and feel the urge to splurge?  Will I always want these foods that I know will cost me too many points?  Will I ever get off my lazy butt and go exercise like I'm supposed to?  Sometimes I feel like I have great effort and then other times I feel like I've gotten no where.

Learn something new this week: Sonic's diet cherry limeades are 0 points so drink up!
