Harder Than I Thought

Contrary to intentions set in my previous post - rule changing did NOT go very well. I don't like the guilt, or that I'm gaining instead of losing, and I don't like feeling like a total failure. I've decided to do Phase 1 of South Beach for the next week starting today.

I liked being able to feel my blood sugar rise and fall - it was all the indicator I needed when making food choices. So it's also back to the book to read up a little and remind myself what I'm up to in the first place.

It's 7 weeks and 3 days to get to 135 from 148.

Doug has agreed to help me hold myself accountable - he also promised to be gentle, and we are both going into this hoping that I won't fly off the handle :)
