		<title>Daily tally</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, I stuck with my plan today.  When I weighed in at 164 this morning, I knew what I had to do.  That weight was, I think, kind of inaccurate, as I&#8217;d eaten some really salty Caesar salad AND had a glass of wine not too long before bedtime last night&#8230;but really, it was enough [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fitgirl4life.wordpress.com&blog=3178970&post=235&subd=fitgirl4life&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Lying to myself&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, after those last two posts, I fell back into my same old mindset.  I made it through ONE DAY of restricting myself, and immediately the lies of Crazed Addict Fatgirl came back to haunt me.  It was like, &#8220;Look, you got back down into the 150s.&#8221;  (I&#8217;d weighed in at 158, I think)  &#8220;Look [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fitgirl4life.wordpress.com&blog=3178970&post=231&subd=fitgirl4life&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>End-of-day report</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I made it through today, and it wasn&#8217;t so terrible.  I even went grocery shopping when I was hungry, WITH a child in tow.  Daughter was home from school, still recovering from some sort of cold/flu.  But by the time I needed to go to Walmart, she no longer had a fever and said [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fitgirl4life.wordpress.com&blog=3178970&post=229&subd=fitgirl4life&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>The Maintenance Mindset</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been doing this weight loss thing for over a year and a half. 
It took me about 4 months of concentrated effort to get to my goal weight, so I&#8217;ve been maintaining for more than a year.
As I&#8217;ve mentioned before, staying the same has been more difficult than reaching my goal.  It&#8217;s hard to maintain [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fitgirl4life.wordpress.com&blog=3178970&post=221&subd=fitgirl4life&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Staying Real&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The truth of this weight loss thing is, it never ends.
And you have to stay honest with yourself.
I&#8217;ve been at my goal weight, more or less, for about a year.  I&#8217;ve maintained the scale numbers by being pretty religious about my morning weigh-in.  Really, it all comes down to forcing myself to be honest.  Seeing those [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fitgirl4life.wordpress.com&blog=3178970&post=217&subd=fitgirl4life&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>An OK day&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I didn&#8217;t work out today because I had a really poor night&#8217;s sleep, got up late, and just wanted to get out and run my errands.  But I didn&#8217;t cave to temptation and have a fattening fast-food lunch, even though I was tempted to.
So I can celebrate that.
We were out and about, and I suddenly [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fitgirl4life.wordpress.com&blog=3178970&post=214&subd=fitgirl4life&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Still here</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m still plugging along.
In case anyone was wondering.
My weight stays around 158, give or take a couple of pounds.  And it only stays in that range because I continue to renew my commitment to this lifestyle every single day.
It&#8217;s not easy.  In fact, lately, I&#8217;ve become plagued by Crazed Addict Fatgirl even on days when I [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fitgirl4life.wordpress.com&blog=3178970&post=207&subd=fitgirl4life&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>I Knew It!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The other day, our newspaper ran a story that explains what I&#8217;ve come to view as my literal addiction to certain foods.  Here it is:

Dives into Dumpsters yield theory on junk food
He went in the middle of the night, long after the last employee had locked up the Chili&#8217;s Grill and Bar. He&#8217;d steer his [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fitgirl4life.wordpress.com&blog=3178970&post=202&subd=fitgirl4life&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Movin&#8217; on down&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, today I weighed in at 158.3.  So I&#8217;m down 5 pounds from that gasp-inducing high weight. 
I&#8217;ve been staying focused on eating like a thin person.  I&#8217;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 [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fitgirl4life.wordpress.com&blog=3178970&post=199&subd=fitgirl4life&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Tuesday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So yesterday, in the morning, my weight was &#8220;down&#8221; to 160.3.  (I put &#8220;down&#8221; in quotes, because 160.3 is still 8 pounds higher than the lowest weight I&#8217;d reached, and I&#8217;m disgusted with myself for allowing it to creep back up.)
This morning I weighed again, and I&#8217;m now at 160.0.
So it&#8217;s gradually coming back down&#8230;but [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fitgirl4life.wordpress.com&blog=3178970&post=196&subd=fitgirl4life&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
