Hormones are the worst when it comes to weight loss. Come to think of it, acknowledging your PMS and making it well known to yourself (for me at least) makes it 100x worse! I acknowledged my PMS and was out of control today - ate a bunch of dried plums and an ENTIRE container of PB2 chocolate edition. UGH. so bloated and unhappy with myself. And so very tired of it! I need to stop buying those trigger foods.... and stop eating salty foods. they make me SO miserable for a few days. the houseboating trip is so close, and I'm only sabotaging myself.

I hated myself the whole time I ate that peanut butter, too - I told myself no with every spoonful, yet I continued to eat it. I don't know WHY I didn't put the spoon down. From now on, if I don't feel good about myself or the place I'm in, I'm going to reflect instead of eating my feelings. HUGE RELAPSE/SETBACK today. I want to feel confident, so I need to start feeling confident in myself. I need to believe that I can lose these last 6 pounds.

I'm having an off day, and I just need to keep pushing through it. I can do this.
