More coming off. Slow but still moving in the right direction. I think since last May about 29 pounds. Very slow (btw, during late Dec/Jan I gained a few couple back, not saying how much but they are all gone now and maybe 1-2 more phew). But I'm ok with this. Maybe slow is best. We'll see. I know I told you I gave up chips for Lent and let me tell you, it's killing me. I asked my honey today, "do you think God would forgive me if I ate chips today?" (knowing he would but I'd be missing the point of sacrificing something even small and silly such as chips, can I not even do THAT?) and you know what he said to me? He said, "no". What? Whaddya mean, 'no'? Of course he would! Dang it.
I'm absolutely missing the point. This is not supposed to be easy but who ever thought giving up something so trite and silly would be this hard? And who the heck EVER said it takes 14 days to break a habit? I've not had chips for almost six weeks tomorrow (Lent began in early Feb) and in no way shape or form has my habit or yearning for chips; tortilla or regular, come to a screeching halt. I will walk in that pantry and stare at the bag of chips that is still there, that clearly I'm the only one in this family who eats (still same amount in same bag from before Lent), and I walk back out. GG. What is WRONG with me?
14 days schmorteen days. I don't think so. I can't even go to Mexican which is my hands down fav, chips salsa and margarita and I'm a happy silly girl.
Wah wah. My silly problems are not really problems. They are just minor irritations. I know this. I so do.
