Well, today I weighed in at 158.3. So I’m down 5 pounds from that gasp-inducing high weight.
I’ve been staying focused on eating like a thin person. I’ve had a couple of slip-ups, like last night when I ate a large cup of Dairy Queen soft-serve. But yesterday, when my husband and I went to lunch at a build-your-own-burrito place called Qdoba, I ordered Mexican gumbo and brought half of it home. I found that I was more than satisfied by a half portion.
It really is not hard to eat like a thin person, once I set aside my attitudes about pigging out. I truly do not like feeling stuffed after a binge session, and like yesterday’s lunch, it’s much more rewarding to eat moderately. Aside from having to end the pleasure of enjoying the food’s taste before I’ve completely burned out on it, it’s no great change.
